Maybe CASA should just get in a charter category aircraft and go for a flight, then compare what is U?S to the MR and then go after the pilot who flew it last and the head LAME and the GM?

Funny thing was I did an IFR charter in a company aircraft and wrote up some things on it that made it unsuitable for both charter and private IFR operations. Next person who flew it was the local CASA FOI, didn't read the MR, blasted of under an IFR flight plan and was essentially none the wiser about my endorsement on the MR.

CASA FOI landed then in a passing conversation with myself mentioned that several things went U/S on him in flight. I took great pleasure in showing him the MR with my endorsements I also noted that this FOI didn't sign the MR prior to his flight (first flight of the day)

Hard to enforce things, if they do not even play by the rules....
