Vulcan co-pilots

Are there any ex Vulcan co-pilots out there who can remember the restrictions placed on them flying the aircraft? I seem to remember that the captain had to have 1000 hrs on the Vulcan before he was allowed to let the co-pilot take the controls. This was back in the mid '60s. Was this a 1 Gp, Bomber Command or an Air Staff requirement?
