Indeed it was. I'm afraid for oil and gas (unless you are OFTEC or
CORGI
registered) the BCO now has to inspect before the commissioning document
you
must submit can even be filled in to send to him.

Well, thanks for enlightening me.

It was definitely better when we had proper single-function utility
companies. They'd often check the installation for nowt and at least you
were more likely to have a specialist looking at your handiwork rather
than some overworked poor BCO trying to keep abreast of the regulations
covering everything.

Now it's 100+VAT for everything... Where did it all go wrong...

When Part P cam out and some people here have founf the £100+VAT appears to
have turned into a lot lot more.
