The Canadian TSB reported the aircraft had been dispatched with the #2 bleed air system inoperative under minimum equipment list requirements. While enroute at FL310 the crew received an "AIR ENG 1 BLEED ABNORMAL PR" ECAM message, declared PAN and performed an emergency descent to 10,000 feet, the cabin pressure never fell below the limit to release the passenger oxygen masks. Maintenance replaced the #2 Temperature Limitation Thermostat and the #2 Pressure Relief Valve and returned the aircraft to service following satisfactory engine runs.
