The appropriate ATS authority
Help, please.
When I am flying VFR in Class G Airspace below 3000 feet in compliance with ICAO Annex 2, Chapter 3.9 (Table 3-1) and the flight visibility drops below 5 km, provided it is ‘prescribed by the appropriate ATS authority’, and I am flying at an appropriate speed I can continue down to a flight visibility of 1500 metres.
How do I know / where can I find out, who the ‘appropriate ATS authority’ is?

VFR Rules
Didn't get a great response when I asked this quesition on the 'ATC Issues' Forum, only 0.5% feedback or thereabouts. Maybe I will do better here.
My question is:
'When I am flying VFR in Class G Airspace below 3000 feet in compliance with ICAO Annex 2, Chapter 3.9 (Table 3-1) and the flight visibility drops below 5 km, provided it is ‘prescribed by the appropriate ATS authority’, and I am flying at an appropriate speed I can continue down to a flight visibility of 1500 metres.

Thanks.

Samotnik,
Thank you very much for your assistance. I have resolved my issue for the time being.
Further research has established that the authority for the FIRs we operate in has filed a difference in which the phrase the 'appropriate ATS authority’ has been deleted.
