Implementation issues
The FRC will review any issues arising relating to the implementation of FRS 102 as they arise, consulting members of its Advisory Panel as appropriate. Decisions will be taken on a case-by-case basis about the best way to address issues such as editorial points, areas where FRS 102 is silent and areas where divergence in accounting practice seems to be emerging.
