Checking the unqualified In March, we quoted from a letter received from Mr D. S. Poppitt commenting on his experiences in checking calculations on behalf of local authorities and, in particular, those prepared by unqualified people. Three of our readers have responded to his comments and given us some details of the problems or difficulties that have arisen within their knowledge in the approval of building designs. Verulam
1. Introduction 1.1 The proposal to establish an Engineering Assembly was included in the Engineering Council’s Policy Statement of September 1982 and is described in general terms in draft Bye Law 77, appended. (See post.) The present consultative document makes detailed proposals for the Assembly based on discussions in the Standing Committee for Professional Institutions and the Council itself. It takes account of submissions made by a Working Party of CEI elected members and the CEI’s Regional Affairs Committee. As a result of points made at the April meeting of the Council, it also includes proposals for a linked regional structure.
Mr R. G. D. Brown (Banks, Brown Associates): I would like to congratulate the authors on an excellent and well-presented paper and would like to make one or two comments.
