     The latest Bulletin A

[https://datacenter.iers.org/data/latestVersion/6_BULLETIN_A_V2013_016.txt]

     predicts that d(UT2)/d(TAI) = 1 after 2021-11-13, ie
     the rates of UTT2 and TAI are expected to agree for the
     next year. This has never happened since 1961. We may
     not need to abolish leap seconds for quite a while.
