That's probably the reasoning behind the Supply Division making copies of
the CSP available for retail sales outside the Council. Normally, the BSA
Supply folks distribute over-runs and merged/discontinued CSPs as well as
those CSPs with older designs to local Councils all over the nation to "get
rid of".
