It's not that easy nitros44, in my current employment I've seen and experienced so many dodgy bad practices, and some time back stress levels were so high that I actually did report the AE for bad practices etc, but what then happens is that the person targeted learns nothing, which is made even worse when the VE is talking to the AE about the complaint and is sneering and grinning with the AE about the complaint. The AE then waited his time to target me and find fault, and what he did was set me up with a customer where I did not answer the phone while in the middle of an mot test, and yes there were other members of staff present who could have answered the phone but would not. When the AE arrived in the test bay he targeted me and at that time because I was being pushed for 14 tests per day plus retests I was mentally tired and blew my top at him. What came next was he suspended me. In the hearing I presented my case and advised the judge that other members of staff were available to answer the phone but nobody would and while I was registered on an mot it would be deemed an unnecessary detraction to the mot test,so I did not answer the phone. The judge in the hearing (not court room) asked the AE's advisor was I correct and the reply came yes he is. The conclusion of the hearing was I was guilty of not answering the phone, and the reason for that was because the AE had suspended me for three weeks and he wanted something out of it for his own satisfaction. So corruption and organised crime there took place because the guy being judge was the AE's mate.   

There are some characters of people out there nitros44 that would have you done over or got rid of for being honest, so experience and understanding has shown that one should live a quite life and let the government do their own sh1t.

Now if you think I'm wrong, take a look at case laws from history, an innocent person is a witness in a public criminal court room and the false gods presenting their cases read out all names and addresses of all concerned aloud in the court room, so you the innocent witness is now targeted by criminals because the full of sh1t false gods who think they are a cut above the human race give out publicly your name and address painting a target on your back, saying LOOK HERE TARGET ME PLEASE.  

No thanks let the government do their own work instead of hiding behind other people looking after their own personal interests. Experience sees through bulsh1t governments come out with. 

I know as well the government told me he appealed against his conviction. I wonder how his appeal ended out?

Cannot see anything will change at all. They have data about garages in terms of tests conducted, how many ramps, times etc , you dont have to Inspector Morse to make a massive dent in clamping down.
This is just reinventing the wheel...unless they publicise it through National Media for the general public it's another fart in a hurricane.

if they want to clamp down on fraud then how about the annual assessment, completely unregulated and an utter farse

just after comp 2 came in the mot history got a real useful feature showing prior test stations.do you remember that children?i put a list together of the local suspects,tests,regs,names,dates with an additional list of the internet tests(which we could already do but you had to try getting em up as a duplicate for the test station and it wouldnt give you the testers name),last year p no a and this year no floors/free range balljoints/fooked tyres etc etc concentrating on the ones that had barely turned a wheel and so forth.the general idea being tho many would be too late for an appeal it would at least give em an idea of where to focus their efforts in terms of fraud etc.seem like a good idea to you guys?yeah,me too.handed the local list to the next ve we saw.his reply after scanning thru it for about 5 secs?yeah we know about all them and handed it back.dont suppose theres any point in giving you this list about the ones in other towns is there?no not really.....turns out that some crooks can be quite clever and you needed proper surveillance etc to catch em in the act which in turn requires expenditure/staff/resources etc and as such werent gonna happen.but hey heres 500 points for logging in the wrong motors details by mistake.....all that interests em is open and shut easily proved offences or a physical appeal which only the owner can ask for and is usually beyond the cut off dates in any case.oh and this aint a new approach,did similar in the 90s/noughties/teens and no they werent interested then either.and why does no one bother to provide them with intelligence?cos the people asking for it have none would be my guess....
