The Laws and Ethics Committee has produced a simplified version of the Orange Book which it hopes will be more readily accessible to members.  Note that the regulations are the same – the wording describing them has been simplified.

The Tangerine Book has some useful information about how to behave at the table and what to do when things go wrong.

The main part of the Tangerine Book is a straightforward list of what can be played at the various competition levels 2, 3 and 4 together with Simple Systems guidelines.  For most club and tournament players this will be all they ever need.

There is also an appendix giving more details of what is permitted at each level.

For those who need a complete reference work the Orange Book is still available as a PDF.

The new Tangerine Book runs to just 14 pages with the appendix being 10 pages.
