Licencing will only provide "Jobs for the boys" Nice salaries,company cars and swanning around the country charging for the licencing for a small few who are in the right social network. Fred in a shed will still be happily carrying on as before and genuine garages who do a good job will pick up the tab. Forced to charge more to cover the extra cost of licencing/training/certification/admin which will increase inflationary pressures. Sorry to be cynical but after 25yrs running a garage it makes you a little cynical.
