Hi Everyone

There is a lot of consultation going on at the moment where the Government and their supporting organisations are looking to the future but it seems the future never arrives for our industry where we just go from one issue to another. This week we are looking at Competence Based Licensing.

When you break down the two main components of Competence Based Licensing you end up with competence - which is skills, abilities and knowledge and licensing - which is when the Government takes away your right to do something and sells it back to you. It can’t be put any simpler than that.
