It's strange or at least noteworthy that the distances quoted are in both metres and feet.
The whole situation is beset with confusion and even that failure to engender a common set of standards is simply a symptom
So who is going to enforce all this well meaning guidance? Not people behind desks. But who else is there with the knowledge, the power, or even a bit of interest?
My guess is no one until a lot of people are hurt.
Aside from the people deliberately killed a fair number have already died - it's just that I guess they were the 'wrong' ones and as a result those deaths were largely ignored.
