Eamon Ryan (Dublin South, Green Party)

Section 9D(13) states: "Where a registered electrical contractor carries out electrical works, which by reason of a determination by the Commission under subsection (27) are specified works, the registered electrical contractor concerned shall issue a completion certificate to the person who requested the works to be carried out." I accept the Minister's point that if a non-registered contractor carries out designated works, that is an offence. However, if we specify the regulations on how a registered electrical contractor operates when he is carrying out a specified work, why are we not setting out what a registered electrical contractor must do when he is carrying out a designated work?
