It would seem that ISO tends to listen to requests for ISO code changes
for countries when they come from the national standards bodies of the
countries in question. Hence the BSI would be the people to propose this
through.
Given the requirements for massive changes to many running systems that
would change the internal workings of millions of pounds worth of
systems in the UK alone for no benefit and indeed no visible change, I
doubt it would be accepted. Still, BSI are the people you should be
talking to.
