Way back in the distant past (1980) when our Cadet Course was doing the Approach Procedural Course at CATC, we were told that there was no such thing as Release on Contact and that we should refuse such a release if an ACC tried to pass it. You could, however, have a Release AND Contact provided a place/level/time was included. e.g. Release and contact at 1015. Highest mark I ever got at CATC was for Approach Procedural - 87%. It's all been downhill from there really!
