The EICR and competence. What are we going to do about the endless problems brought to the forum?

Your answers Gentlemen, please. This is indicating a serious problem in the Industry. Trust is now zero. I am disgusted with the behavior of these alleged "inspectors" who are dim, dumb, deaf and blind, and cannot read the BBB. It is not good enough is it?

    It is obviously not good enough.


    However, the blame is solely with the government.

    They introduce unnecessary new laws merely for effect while using words and terms of which no one knows the meaning - electrical safety report; qualified person - while ignoring the fact that absolutely anyone can purport to be competent and carry out electrical work in England. 


    The usual practice of most laws relating to such things will be employed; namely nothing will be done to police any work or results until someone is killed when blame can be apportioned to anyone other than a negligent government.

     

    I'm not so sure that the government is soley to blame here. Its more likely to be lobbyist' such as NICEIC, NAPIT, LFB who are vying for top dog.in the badger pit providing implied ambiguity and badger sized holes in their  thinking

    All the government has done is produced a white paper to legislate against dodgy electrical work and a clean up method called EICR for properties run as businesses.  How it operates is open for debate. Its important not to think too deeply when deeling with tick boxes.
