Are the rules enough?
Are the rules actually being applied in the way they were intended?
Do you see signs of a dysfunctional system?
Are the instructors/examiners up to the task?
in my little world the answer to those questions are yes, yes, no and yes but you know how the military system works.

Training is expensive so who will pay for it? As long as the attitudes prevail that just good enough is good enough and profit is the all important driver of everything, nothing will change. More legislation might help but there are always loopholes and 'interpretations' in laws and rules - the only answer is to make the minimum standard hiogher than you actually need to do the job.
