Finally the ruling I was dreading:
West North East South
1C pass 1H dbl
pass 2D 1NT
Under the old rules, I can allow East to bid to 2NT without penalty,
but now, she wanted to show 6-10 and I suppose 2NT might show
10-11 say. Clearly not "incorporated" under the new Act. So I
should allow no change which allows partner to stay in the bidding.
However, I tell them all about incorporates etc. and then decide to
allow a change to 2NT without penalty to see what happens. All
pass so no problem perhaps? I still think TPTB want us to allow
all the previously allowed changes and then some. If I had applied the
strict meaning of the Law, the 2NT correction would have barred
partner, a result earnestly to be hoped for by the 6-10 holder.
Cheers,
