Just my take as a groundie here.

Jepp seem to publish CATII minima, with Company text (Procedures) listing CATIIA/B minima.

My (EU) lot are changing to 'published' CATIIIA minima on the relevent plate, as and when the plate needs changing.

As such, the plate negates the text list, the plate becoming the published 'Company Minima'.

During the transition, which may take many years, the Aircrew, still refer to the 'Text' for minima, as one would expect, it is their trained and trusted method. Some have questioned the change and it needs some, but not a lot of explaining, to be fair and we, (they) go to CATIIIA minima.

Despite whatever brief for landing by the Crew, 'Published Minima' should be there on the two aproach plates, at least to CATIIIA, if applicable, for both to see, should the call LAND2 come.
