Gas Safe Register only accepts evidence of competence in gas
safety such as:

(etc)

You don't have to be on the Gas Safe Register to be competent.


But you do if you want to be considered competent with gas.

Which is one way to demonstrate competence and not the only way.


There are other ways but how do you demonstrate compedence ?


You don't have to be on the Gas Safe Register to DIY. You do have to be
competent.


To do DIY gas you do. But as they said on the phone it's a grey area but they expect anyone working on gas to be compedent.

unless you can prove otherwise, of course.

The key here is who is compenet rather than who thinks they are.
As I and teh above says it will be up to the courts to decide and tehy will onjly get involved if something goes wrong, and if that is the case then how can that person be thought of as compedent ?
