Hugh,

Remember too that the paragraph 12.3.8 also states this, which is the the same as the AIP GEN 3.4 para 5.11 Oliver referred to above:

Quote:
ATC may cancel STAR speed requirements either by individual instructions;
eg, “CANCEL SPEED RESTRICTIONS”, or by general
advice on the ATIS; eg, “STAR SPEED RESTRICTIONS DO NOT
APPLY”.
I believe the "speed restriction greater than 250KT issued above 10,000FT" in 12.3.7 doesn't actually refer to when the controller cancels speed while you're way above A100, but is more for when ATC tell you to fly a speed on descent (eg. max on cruise and descent) without actually cancelling speed.
