What the petition asks
Regardless of background, training and experience anyone can turn up at your door claiming to be an expert locksmith. Reputation hardworking experienced locksmiths can quickly be tarnished by the poor skills or extortionate prices charged by a few poorly trained, inexperienced or rogue locksmiths.
We would welcome the government to regulate the industry to protect the public and stamp out rogue traders.
