Trotman's tubular-neighborhood conjecture for b-regular stratified spaces

From papers

Let (A,Σ)(A,\Sigma) be a differentiable stratified space bb-regularly embedded by pp into Rn\mathbb R^n: for strata Y<XY<X, whenever sequences in XX and YY converge to a point of YY, the limiting direction from the points of XX to the points of YY lies in the limiting tangent space to XX. For every stratum XΣX\in\Sigma and point xXx\in X, there should exist a neighborhood UU of xx and a tubular neighborhood (L,L)(L,\mathcal L) of XUX_{|U} in (U,ΣU)(U,\Sigma_{|U}) such that the restriction pLp_{|L} is an embedding of (L,L)(L,\mathcal L). Trotman's conjecture. Every differentiable stratified space satisfying this bb-regular embedding condition has such a locally embedded tubular neighborhood around each stratum. The conjecture is D. Trotman's 1993 adaptation of Whitney's conjecture to differentiable stratified spaces; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
