Thats very true but I think you will find that the householder is also liable so who in their right mind is going to stitch themselves up.

it is true, he really should have checked the guy's registered membership in the first place

yes he should,
my mother always insisted on corgi registered to service her fire, does she know why? no she just knows if its gas its corgi (she wont have a clue about gas safe but thats irrelevant here)
if she wanted a fuseboard she would call an electrician - not a jib or partp or niceic or any other form just an electrician, yet she woulde also be held accountable even though she only knew she needed an electrician
and at 75 with her only son being an electrician and having tried to explain it to her a million times she still none the wiser......

Would be simpler IMHO if most things needed to be signed off by a "registered person". That'd prob put a lot of cowboys out of the picture.
It's very confusing at the moment for householders as to what needs to be signed off and what doesn't. If everything except say like for like replacement needed signing off would that be better or worse ?

Why leave out "like for like"?
The system is too complicated
Its too complicated for the sparks operating under it
Its too complicated for Labc to concern themselves about
Its too complicated for the customer who happens to know of it
Its a piece of cake for the lucky vast majority who have never heard of the damn thing and carry on regardless, oblivious to the fiasco of part p
