In Australia, capital city airports have expected holding delays for each time period through the week listed in the AIP, and it is a requirement to carry that traffic holding.
I.e. Flying into Sydney, with an expected arrival of 0930 local on Monday morning, you check the AIP and find a requirement for 20 minutes holding (traffic, that is - in addition to weather).
Mind you, you don't normally carry alternates in Australia.

Scio - there are plenty of 'public' references to the new ICAO procedures. As you are aware, countries and agencies are at liberty to file 'differences' to ICAO writings and I was interested in the incorporation in Europe and the UK.
