"Are you saying that the electrical ingnition risks are in fact an issue here?"
Ask yourself this question, "why has AAR not been resumed?".
On the question of what is in the QinetiQ report; a statement that the risk level for the fuel system is "remote", and there are 30 reasons why it is not ALARP. And once again, if a system is remote and not ALARP, it is not safe.
This being the case, under the Health and Safety Act, MoD (as an employer) is failing in its duty to its employees and the general public.

Are you saying one of the recs in the QQ report comments on electrical ignition risks? I'm inclined to think they don't otherwise it would've been qouted here by now. If there is one, what exactly does it say?
I assumed the AAR limitation was related to some of the unknown system-system behaviour issues inflight & pressure spikes etc. - hence nothing to do with electrical ignition issues as you seem to imply above? Edsett - can you comment on this?
