EASA European ATCO licence

ATCO.MED.B.025 Metabolic and endocrine systems
(a) Applicants with metabolic, nutritional or endocrine dysfunction may be assessed as fit
subject to demonstrated stability of the condition and satisfactory aero-medical evaluation.
(b) Diabetes mellitus
(1) Applicants with diabetes mellitus requiring insulin shall be assessed as unfit
We have 2 have no licence because of Diabetes.

As part of the consultative process EASA was planning changes around the medical side.

I believe that the UK Aeromed section made submissions to change the ban.

I believe that the UK regs were different and at the end of the consultation process EASA elected to kick the process to touch.
