[QUOTE="Geoff1946, post: 507241, member: 28452"] I think governments see these regulatory bodies and training companies as job creation.` I see parallels in driving licencing. When I passed my test in the 1960s I was permitted to drive up to 7.5 ton vehicles, minibuses, tow trailers, etc Only HGVs or PSVs required extra training. These have been progressively split into separate groups with corresponding extra tests to pass. There is a test centre nearby, and I see specialist, (and presumably expensive) driving school vehicles, qualifying people to drive vans over 3.5 tons, tow mid sized caravans and trailers, etc Across the country this must employ many hundreds or maybe thousands of people. It's been common to blame the EU for over-regulation but I'm not convinced. I think the UK is a leader. [/QUOTE]
