Reported in the Evening Standard last night (sorry, can't find a link
to the story) that John Prescott is considering introducing further
restrictions on DIY enthusiasts following the success of Part P.

The article suggested that restrictions would be introduced to control
most DIY plumbing, following concerns around the impact poor work is
having on the environment.

Also restrictions were being considered on work taking place above a
certain height, presumeably on Health and Safety Grounds, which I
believed has been discussed in this group before.

Has anyone else heard of these new regs, or did you read the Standard
last night.

And today's date is ? [I hope].
