New P2 exam, UK variant?

Hi,

I’ve read that the ACCA are changing the P2 paper in a couple of years. Does that mean there won’t be a separate UK variant paper from then on?

I’d like to know as I’m planning to take the international variant (slightly easier) but ideally would prefer not to shut the door on the possibility of getting an auditing certificate at some point in the future. Under the current system I’m kind of making a career choice not to become an auditor. I’m probably not going to take the audit paper either, but if I want to go into audit later I’d have to re-sit 2 papers instead of just 1.
