  • Reading this carefully, I would doubt that anyone would want to be a QS unless they were totally in charge of every aspect of the employed staff to carry out work. Presumably anyone producing an "office" certificate or report could be prosecuted for any deviation from the information provided, and realistically would have to do QA checks on everything, just as self protection. Having seen many "made up" certs and reports, I don't think the QS can last much longer, and each tradesman should have to have all the qualifications, after all why not? Then they will themselves be liable and that should give a significant increase in standards, at least as long as the qualifications are not watered down.
