Just out of interest I've just contacted the ODPM to ask how to go about setting up a scheme. I'll post up the news as I get it but don't hold your breath guys
trev I think you will find the name ODPM went with Prescott.
They are now DCLG Buildings Division, the same people, but now on there 4th Junior minister since Part P came in.
You are right DCLG are requesting for people to set up new Schemes, the biggest draw back is having to get UKAS acreditation within 2 years though. I dont know why DCLG bother with UKAS as all they do is check that the Schemes are ticking boxes.
The fact that the Installer on the Doorstep, does not have to be Competent does not seem to bother UKAS, still they also are going to make lots of money, from ALL Schemes having to be UKAS Acredited now.
They charge £1000 a day +VAT +expenses, happy days for them, but why do they exist when they dont ensure Competence on the Doorstep?
Could it be another Scam?
