Quite possibly, and some of the non-adherences came about whilst they were trying to become ICAO compliant such as the holding point names (ETTIV, HORKA etc). 5 letter names are for airborne use only and should not be used on the ground. You should also not have runway entry points named the same as the taxiway that services them, such as Alpha 4, Alpha 5 etc. on 27R that come off the Alpha taxiway. Thanks to BAA's bungling the whole place is a total mess now but then what do you expect from them.
