"Part P in force by 2004" - is the headline on the front page of the
current
edition [1] of 'Electrical review' news magazine.

Some snippets, more or less verbatim:

- Part P will be introduced into the Building Regulations "by the
end of 2004", according to the [ODPM].

Expect to see a rush of new DIY books as well, full of disclaimers and
warnings.
I presume they will have to withdraw all the old ones from sale to avoid
misleading the punters.

Although if the direst predictions are correct then even changing a light
fitting will require an inspection visit by a qualified electrician.



Nah - never happen.

Is it not the law in some countries that you have to be 'qualified' to fit a
plug?
