Licence the Automotive Repair Sector

What the petition asks

With vehicle technology advancing at such a pace repairs to vehicles need to be done at the highest standards and following manufactures guidelines. The scope of repairs is needed to be done by a qualified technician.
Modern vehicles are almost impossible to repair without training and specialist tooling either electrical or mechanical. Making it mandatory to have a licence would enable technicians have sufficient training to ensure vehicles are repaired correctly to workshop repair guides.
