What's people's issues with their respective schemes ?
Please don't say money

Right .......... so 1 spark started the work, and another has taken over - is this correct?

For the benefit of the debate, the op has told me via a pm that a new spark came on board after they had been ripped off...

The Part 'P' document is two pages long so maybe that is what the council want?
If the electrician is NIC then he can issue you with the Part 'P' direct from the NIC website and you have to wait for it to be posted.
The Part 'P' looks like the sample below.
eec247 Part-P Certificate of Compliance - http://www.eec247.com/mandatory/part_p_cert/part_p_cert.html

So just to add.

Not all building control offices accept an EICR in place of an EIC.

So OP check with building control or you may be faced with more costs

Sorry. Got to disagree with this 2 page stuff.

Stroma issue a single sided A5 document

If you look at the example link i gave then you will see the main cert page and a information page as page 2 hence two pages

If the sparky is sending the test results to the council for them to issue the cert perhaps he isn't in a scheme?

They do nothing to sort out the cowboys ................... unless they use their logo's
They don't represent the views of the trade
They don't cooperate to sort out the DNO's

Need I go on?

It's good to let it all out

EG: I've not noticed any of the schemes "pushing back" on the changes proposed for the 18th edition - or even saying delay it.

Why not?

Because they would lose revenue.

So its alright for them to recommend we ALL have to implement this stuff and buy the books, take exams, etc and they can sit back and estimate how much (more) profit they will make.

On the contrary I've watched niceic and napit webinars were they've attached comments to the DPC dismissing quite a few of the proposed changers including the earth electrode and especially part 8.
Have a look on YouTube.
Napit have especially commented on the changes and recommended their own 'improvements ' if you like.
Worth a watch Murdock.
