Milestones

We think there should be legal requirement for all existing homes to have electrics updated to new regulations, and that the Government should fund enforcement.

We believe the government should do this as there are homes with electrics that are decades old and it can be safer for their electrics to be updated. Also, many homes may have at least 1 improperly wired appliance so this could help ensure any problems are also rectified.
