Here's my take:
"Alternate Minima" is the minimum ceiling and visibility required for the aerodrome to be nominated for use as an Alternate.
Im not sure if this is a typo, regional difference or just plain wrong but that is not what the alternate minima means at all in Australia. If the wx at your destination airport is below the published alternate minima then that airport requires an alternate. NOT....
An authority or company may specify a generic margin above a destination airfield's approach minima below which an alternate must be nominated.
Or have I got this all wrong??
