     From the draft of the proposed new version, as I can can see there are no substantive changes from the previous edition. The EC summary of changes document states, inter alia


    1. Greater clarity between IEng and CEng. The requirements for IEng and CEng have been clarified, specifically:




      • -  Differentiating between IEng and CEng, principally at competences A and B (for example, A2 (CEng) emphasises technical complexity and level of risk).




    2. -  Closer alignment between the requirements for competence C, recognising that the management/leadership requirements are more similar than they are different.





    From my comparison of the documents there is more explanation of the differences in competencies A and B between IEng and CEng. Specifically that IEng is clearly set at a much lower level and more narrowly based than CEng. In terms of competency C, I can't see any difference from the previous version, part from a little reordering of text. From an IEng perspective it looks a bit of a stitch up.


    I agree with Roy's viewpoint, but I suspect there will very few changes from the current draft.
