I think its a great idea to help make unproductive ex criminals into valued members of society. And what could be more fitting ? I'm certain if Impact 43 liased with Ionics and the Probation service many convicts could have first hand business guidance and the possibility of some sort of release package in a form of tied (self) employment. No brainer.

impact 43 are prob missing a trick they should contact the prison service if they could get that rolled out thru the prison they would make a fortune

You said you like building things Rich. Look into it yourself ? Can't be that hard (to get the initial contact etc..) ?

Why would he not have got a licence in scotland? I know of guys with criminal records for drug dealing n all sorts who are licensed. The licence is nothing more than a way for council to get money from you. It is not enforced by policd or anything really.

It is enforced by the police.

When you apply for a license it firstly gets sent to the police force, and they can either object or grant. It then goes to benefits and customs to make sure you aren't on the brew.

If the police object you have to go to hearings to see if you can get it granted. Anyone with a background of theft have next to no chance of getting a license though. Unless they can prove they are a changed person etc.

Licenses are a good thing up here. :)

The same offence can't be used against you twice.

WRONG...the UK have amended those Laws.
