There are hundreds of posts on this board on the unique nature of UK Instrument flying, the UK only rating that allow pilots to fly in IMC with less onerous training than a full Euro IR, and of course the risk this UK only privilege will be lost on transition to EASA.
In fairness the report has one word wrong, it should be 'an' rather than 'the' Instrument Rating.
