Electrician Title

Jaymack
There seems to be a case for a UK wide legislation for the same as the link below- A registered bod wtth any one of the schemes should be made mandatory. Also a householder should be only allowed to carry out the minimum .......... but to what extent and how to regulate as Gas Safe? Lobby your MP and your scheme provider.   
Quote: Scotland’s electrical industry has once again backed new legislation that will prevent anyone from calling themselves an electrician unless they have been certified.

    Please no. No mandatory registration of so called "competent persons schemes". The link provided from electrical review in the OP is for SJIB. Now that is more preferable as it is for individual competence, similar to the  ECS/JIB "registered electrician" card.
