This week keeping regulation simple and the need for industry governance not just to protect us from the Plumbers Gasfitters and Drainlayers Board but from other organisations and government departments as well.

More consumer rights and remedies you need to be aware of and more about joining and supporting the Federation.

The Annual Report has to be tabled in Parliament so you won't get to see it until after the general election.

The House sat for the last time in the 50th Parliament on 31 July and will not sit again until after the general election on 20 September. After the election, information about members and parties will be progressively updated on the website as it becomes available and then we presume they get back into the real issues that affect our lives.

We don't now how this sits for the Board adhering to the Charities Act which states they must have their annual return to the Charities Chief Executive 6 months after their balance date.

Needless to say we won't see it for a while yet.
