[QUOTE="Murdoch, post: 461283, member: 24445"] Its obvious, the DCLG, not wanting to be responsible for making any decisions, will call in "experts" (aka the scams) and they will advise the best course of action if for them to add EICR's to their schemes and the IET make it mandatory for the only people to do them be registered with a scheme - they of course won't have powers of policing such a system ................................. then no one party is seen to make the final decision and then when it goes wrong nobody can be held to blame. I doubt very much that they will engage with anyone at "the coal face" who this will impact... I don't do many EICR's - I find them very tedious , I won't join a scheme to "tick a box", and I certainly won't join to the race to the bottom and do them for peanuts.... Around here GS chaps charge £60 to do the mandatory gas checks which take about 1 hour - which nobody complains about, yet ask £135 minimum for an EICR which takes 4 + hours and "you are too expensive"...
