The limited duty exemption has been removed from the bill which probably makes compliance notably more expensive while not improving safety. (As far as I can tell.)
This seems unfortunate.
I think you should still be able to proceed in a somewhat reasonable way by making a safety case on the basis of insufficient capability, but there are still additional costs associated with not getting an exemption.
Further, you now can’t just claim an exemption prior to starting training if you are behind the frontier which will substantially increase the costs on some actors.
This makes me more uncertain about whether the bill is good, though I think it will probably still be net positive and basically reasonable on the object level. (Though we’ll see about futher amendments, enforcement, and the response from society...)
