Thanks John. It used to be if the inspector thought that if something that required further investigation could give rise to danger then it merited an FI and the report result would be unsatisfactory.

Now only C1s and C2s can make it unsatisfactory, an FI could be issued but it can't make the report unsatisfactory on it's own. Of course an inspector can still make a judgement call on this if they find it necessary but they would not be following the guidance.

The whole of the guidance notes for EICRs has been rewritten and I think further guidance on this should be included in GN3, Graham has said it will not be included which I find odd.
