No nothing like PP, your fitter needs to submit a self certification
notice to them that says it complies with the requirements of part L
(should cost him about £3.50 or something like that IIRC). I am sure one
of our regular fitters could elaborate on the exact process.

Online with direct debit it takes about 5 minutes and cost £2.50 (less a
few pennies for lower VAT).

I expect that for most LAs it is one of those things that have simply
never happened. Some CORGIs will submit the paperwork, others won't, but
I would be very surprised if any self installers (or non registered
fitters trading illegally) have done a building notice.

It is worth me doing them, as the notices are one of the things which the
Corgi/Crapita take as part of their 'risk assessment'. I.e. The guys who
put in notices are deemed to be likely to have less faults with their
work. Ergo I've nearly forgotten what the inspector looks like.

Yup, sorry I was not being that clear there... I as thinking more about
the non CORGI[1] submitting a standard building notice before doing the
work (and paying the ~£100 fee), rather than the CORGI ones...

[1] Is the ability to do part L notices cheaply, available to all CORGIs
or is it limited in some way?
