Just to clarify Steve. With the proposed point in lieu of training per year:
If someone goes 4yrs without training, they'll accumulate 4 training points in lieu (on top of their service points). If they then get trained they will have already got the points so no extra.
If they were trained before accumulating any points in lieu, they would get 4 training points straight up and no more training points for the next 4 years (except service points).
Correct me if I'm wrong...
