Notifiable works.

In my mind what we are working towards achieving is a single register which works along the lines of the gas safe scheme.
They are not allowed to profit, actually have teeth when it comes to dealing with bad work, anyone can report bad work to them and they investigate.

Long pointy teeth are essential if any scheme is going to have credibility.

I really feel for you all!!, I get great joy from you all still bashing away at it and listening to your daily task's, a trade that still very close to my heart, but am glad I am away from all the politics of it.!! Happy now just to fix meters to the wall. lol

I'm slowly drifting away from the domestics myself, gathering a few more commercial clients.

Plus I have a fireworks business we are slowly rejuvenating after the recession, when that can afford to pay me I'll be packing the tools away.
(If you ever think H&S and insurance is a ball ache in this game, try storage and transportation of cat4 fireworks!)

Part P is here to stay, I make no mistake about that. The best anyone can hope for is some sort of amendment to it. What I, and many others, object to is the way the trade is being steered by the very organisations that were supposed to be upholding standards.
It's them we want rid of and there's only one way to do that and that is to drive them out of business.

Part P was brought into law as a knee jerk reaction by a Labour government that was supposed to improve public safety couple this with some government idea we had a massive skills shortage and what have ended up with the mess we have today. Part P as it stands needs to be abolished and if it is really needed then a new Part P needs to be formulated that only allows properly trained and qualified electricians this should mean that the training companies will get their act together and offer proper training or go out of business

The other thing is, I nor I imagine anyone else has ever heard of how a scam has actually managed to save a life or make domestic installation any safer.
