Default Sinster censorship caused by Part P

Just been reading a thread about the Which guide to DIY and it's
unavailability, possibly due to the electrical information contained
wihtin and Part P.

I have seen an online site stating that it had withdrawn some electrical
projects (can't remember the name of the site) due to insurance reasons !?

Surely this is wrong. As I understand it, ordinary people can still do
any sort of electrical work so long as they submit plans, get them
approved and get it inspected.

We are, afterall, adults and supposed to be able to make decisions for
ourseleves.

Information should not be hidden away

As a foot note, I have heard a rumour that in New Zealnd the authorities
have moved ion the opposite direction of Part P and de-regulated.
Apparently, deaths and injuries fell.
