I think you should contact Global Engineering Documents to see if they sent you a "defective" standard.
If not, and the UK has not included that paragraph, the standard seems inclomplete. Nevertheless, it is the EN which is the basis of compliance, not a national standard. So, you may site EN55022 with the paragraph as the basis of compliance and ignore the BSI standard. John P. Wagner Lucent Technologies, Bell Labs 11900 N.
