​I have noted in another discussion, several comments of my own, but there seems to be a lack of interest or it takes too long to read and digest the report.

​Apart from Roy's original comments and direction to be able to read the report, it would be great to find out if IMechE, ICE and the IET have had any official comments on the report and if not, when can we expect any.?

P.S. Just had to get away from CEng v IEng status discussion.

    Brian,

    Your observations
    are just.

    Engineers need to be
    made responsible for their actions.



    Registration free
    from the constraints of the CE Hegemony is needed.



    Your arguments
    confirms that C Eng is not a system that leeds to responsibility,
    it is a private club for prestige, wgere membership depends on Peer
    review by peers that are not objective.



    We need an
    independent system based on education , training and experience.
    CEng does not give us this.



    I can give numerous
    cases of CEng incompetence and closed shop practice.



    Look at statistics
    in the UK.

    The professional
    engineer who has to work to codes and regulations- the I Eng- is no
    longer being registered at ECUK.

    IET has
    driven pout its original IEng members, and does nothing to recruit
    new members (I can say the same for women engineers).



    By
    contract and Official Secrets, I can not divulge particular cases,
    but what I have had to correct and what I have observed is
    horrendous. My appartement complex has just had a 3million €
    ecological refit exactly - the same, I asked the fire inspectors
    what they thought, they said it would be better to knock it all
    down and start again, but greed & politics prevails.

    Well I am
    in France and yesterday the French decided to put an end to
    that.



    We could
    put an end to this corruption in the UK, but we are afraid to vote,
    only look at our own gain, and do not give two hoots for
    professionalism.



    We shoiuld
    get rid of this out of date system ECUK PE registration and CEng
    hegemony.



    Glad you
    agree!



    In one of
    my last contracts, I set up a document management system of codes
    and regulations for industrial plantI catalogued over 3000
    compulsary codes to observed for any standard highrocess plant; we
    have to sort out our codes and regulations as well.
