altimeter setting

Many airlines are now setting the altimeter from QNH to QNE when cleared to climb above the TA while in doc 8168 it is specified that it should be done at the transition altitude.

I was reviewing Doc 8168 and i haven't even found the allowance were you could set from QNE to QNH when cleared to an altitude in descent. Now in 8168, it says to change to QNH when passing through the transition altitude ?

As there been any change lately on this ?

thanks
