EICR - time taken to complete

[i=p/u]

well i thought is just 5 pages including guidance note for recipients.. suppose how many faults and how many circuits you have= more pages for observations and reccomendations

If your NICEIC registered, there is nothing stopping you from using the PIR's until June 1st 2012.
I have a strange feeling the new EICR is going to turn into a VHS vs BETAMAX type of war. (For those of us old enough to remember that lol.)U turns are starting to happen, and I have a sneaky suspicion that somebody in the land of the gods is going to realise that there are a lot of creases that need ironing out before they can say this EICR is an improvement over the PIR.
I for one, having completed both, can honestly say the old PIR is the better cert. (At the moment) Thats why I reckon your going to see changes to it. They have pushed this through way too soon I.M.H.O.
To me it's like comparing a multiple choice exam paper to a written exam.
I know which one I have the greater respect for.

One of my clients has about 30 houses/flats. He has told me of a website offering inspections from £65. He is going to send me the details- maybe I can get them to do my inspections from now on & add my little bit. Doooow
