Unreliable airspeeds

Here is what H.H. the Air Caraïbe's Flight Security Officer says about this meeting at Airbus's Toulouse facilities (oct.2008):
"Despite these contradictory aspects (note of the translator: in the QRH), the PNT (pilots) of the FDF have had the appropriate reactions when the two false stall alarms sounded. Moreover, the Airbus engineers have fully taken the measure of the crew difficulties for a swift and efficient implementation of the UNRELIABLE SPEED INDICATION procedure. They agreed that our remarks are justified and will study a check-list modification. To be continued..."

PS) Since words may be important (if you can read French), this is an attempt of translation of the very last page and paragraph of the Air Caraïbe report http://www.eurocockpit.com/docs/ACA.pdf
PPS) Page 69 of the interim BEA report, I quote: for information, the “Memory Item” in the Airbus QRH relative to the same fault is shown below in the version in force on the date of the accident:
