There has been a row in the background and the MSA were forced to issue a second Bulletin saying the original rules are in their view correct, but that the Scruits shouldnt enforce it just yet while they work out what to do. From what I understand, there is a bit of politics between the cage manufacturers which doesnt help

If you are about to install a cage, then it would be worth studying the original MSA Bulletin to ensure what you make will be OK regardless of what they decide. Of course some manufacturers (who I tend to agree with) are saying that the fixing of the foot adds more heat into the tube and actually reduces the strength of the cage.

Best of luck
