This discussion has been covered ad nauseum elsewhere and as far as I know the situation hasn't changed. Ofcom have stated that BS are beyond their control because they operate under dutch licenses (It's actually a mixture of dutch and UK licenses, and the whole situation is bit murkier than that, but even so, the lack of investigations against BS seems to support what ofcom say, look elsewhere for a more comprehensive overview).
The general consensus is that BS nevertheless self-regulate themselves to roughly the same standard as the other channels in order to stay 'below the radar'. In other words, they don't want to push things too far in case ofcom decide to find or invent a loophole that allows them to clamp down on them as well as the other channels.
There's also the simple fact that all the channels have been watching their backs for a while. Sooner or later one or more channels will start to test the limits again, and if they get away with it, the others will start to follow. Not surprising that elite is slowest to respond, as they were being heavily targeted by ofcom previously, so will be more nervous than some.

if thats the case why dont all the other channels just get a dutch licence
According to Ofcom the main BS company is based in the Netherlands so BS uses a adult licence granted by it's country of origin , in order for other company's to use the Dutch licence they would also have to be based in the Netherlands and/or satisfy other certain criteria , Elite as far as i know is a UK based company so probably wouldn't be able to get one .
