No, CAP 1779 clearly mentions that in 2.2 (and perhaps elsewhere).
Yes sorry, that was poorly phrased, the do state it as a fact but don't then proceed to the (obvious to me anyway) adverse consequences.
I'm still trying to understand the bigger point you are making:you won't be able to fly legally in the 1500 foot CTAs at either end if the cloud is 2500 or less.
I'm not clear what you're asking? You can't be SVFR in the CTA and if cloud is below 2500 feet you can't be VFR either (legally) in the Cardiff 1500 foot CTRs following the proposed changes (and I've just noticed you even have a 1000 foot one as well)! If you can't fly through the CTA how are you going to get to the CTR to experience the new-found joy of SVFR? It's the (legally ) bit that seems to provoke debate (or not)! as to whether it actually matters.
