Campaign To Regulate Electricians Grows

It was pleasing to see the ongoing campaign to regulate electricians in Scotland highlighted on BBC radio this morning by Newell McGuinness of SELECT.

SELECT - the trade association for electricians in Scotland, are in discussion with the Scottish Government to have the profession of an Electrician officially regulated by law, similar to gas installations. 

I fully support this case as only this week my company lost out on a job to a retired electrician who could carry out a job cheaper than us but has no up to date qualifications and was planning on installing life saving fire detection equipment in peoples homes not to the current standard or regulations.
