A subject which has in the past been discussed to death.
Leave it to the bureaucrats and we will have a standards disaster which will stifle the ICV industry.
Merv also said the following: "The 'industry' has a large and continuing stake in the establishment of one national set of rules".
I sat in on a meeting a while back which included a number of Qld. based manufacturers. During that meeting I mentioned it was my view that unless the "Industry" starts lobbying and discussing issues with State governments then eventually there will be no industry.
The manufacturers at that meeting were complacent to say the least.
John Staszynski the ex President CCC SA. was setting up a working party which was to lobby governments but received little support. I suspect once an owner/builder has gone thru the "joys" of compliance then that's it as far as that owner is concerned. ie. He has his toy and has no interest in what happens in the future.
The manufacturers ( with cobra club support) have to drive this change. The manufacturers are the folks making money from the industry. They need to be more proactive.
