Proposed EASA IR

According to the EASA NPA it will no longer be possible for a color "unsafe" to get an IR since the night qualification is required and the nq requires the license holder to be color safe. Has anybody else noticed this? (I did comment that the IR should at least be available as daytime only for CVD pilots) If anybody has connections into the FCL008 group they should try to get this option inserted already from the beginning.

Anyhow, maybe one should hurry before the new regulations enter into effect?
From the thread I gather that some people have managed to get the nq with a safety pilot for the solo part and then gone on to the IR. Has somebody managed this in Sweden or are we talking UK only? Translation and interpretation of the JAR is not always the same (and as far as I understand the JAR is not really applied currently). Any advice as to how one goes about getting the nq in practice would be much appreciated!
