Fixed, didn't see that, thought it was part of the joining up thing.The politicians don't always do their due diligence and many times don't understand the impact of their decisions till it's too late. If things are as bad as you say, I'm guessing the situation will cause your ISO score to drop, then look out for higher insurance rates for everyone and guess who they will try to blame.
By the way if I was you, I would not be so specific as to your location in your profile.
Yea, ISO ratings , tbh I think the other town just lies about thiers as they do nothing required. No boxes beeing checked, no minimum hrs in what you need. Its pretty much a joke. Atually , the training officer , who gets paid extra, hasn't put anything out. I am the only one saying we have to hit so many hrs in this or that as required, and nothing is being done or recorded. And if something happens, thats on me, as I am responsible for my shift. But they overule me as its how they do things. Its atually the worst run thing I have ever witnessed in my life, almost to the point of being criminal.
