However, all UK-issued JAR-FCL PPLs were now deemed to be EASA part-FCL PPLs on 8 Apr 2012, so the ANO restrictions which previously applied to JAR-FCL PPLs no longer apply; hence licence holders may operate in accordance with ICAO VMC minima.
Not sure I agree, BEagle. While JAR-FCL licences may already be deemed to be EASA Part-FCL licences, Part-FCL does not apply in the UK until 1 July 2012. Thus until 1 July the EASA Part-FCL licence is about as much use as chocola... Oh no, I'm sorry, you've already used that one.
Given the shelf life of the discussion and the likely absence of consequences, I'm not sure this one is worth killing too many electrons for, though.
