Been watching this tread for a while,seeing as the hand brake is aplied by a ratchet it should be posible to fit a lorry stile sprung on air cylinder to the cable with a discreet lorry hand brake valve ,it would meen you needed a air supply but would give you the requied control on braking ,this should then comply with the requied rule .

had a simler prob on my land rover was found to be a pin hole in the hose between pump and res ,blead the steering box for air by going from lock to lock and releasing the bleed screw while on full lock this clear any air from the system, this is best done with a helper then check all pipes . my feed had rubed through agenst the chassy, made a temp fix with a split bit of hose and a hose clip .this might help track the foult .
