Grattan Endicott:

Richard Hills:

Yes, my example was very poorly chosen, and Grattan has
correctly noted that the EBU Red, Amber and Green
classifications are used as tools in determining if an
illegal Concealed Partnership Understanding exists.

A better example of a sub-classification of conventions
would be the ABF Yellow (HUM), Red, Blue and Green sub-
classification of systems based on the nature of their
conventional bids at the one-level.  This ABF regulation
is made pursuant to its power over conventions (and non-
conventional initial actions at the one level a King or
more below average strength) granted by Law 40D.
