Reading the report I put myself into the category of having had more than my fair share of defective installations to repair.
A quote from the report:
It would be fair to say, we feel, that the skilled electricians responding to the Call for Evidence came from that section of the occupation which had had more than its fair share of defective installations to repair and, perhaps, more experience of the impacts of low-competence operatives.
As such they might have more cause to be sympathetic to the concept of increasing regulation and to any change which would protect their skilled capabilities from being simulated by lesser-skilled people.
The problem is the author of the report could not actually decide who is doing dodgy electrical work in people’s homes.
The report.
