In 2000 the SJIB National Board introduced the following rules: Any operative who submits forged certificates to the SJIB when applying for their card will have their existing card removed and no further applications will be considered for a period of 6 years, i.e. the lifetime of two cards. An operative with a genuine SJIB Grade card who submits a false application for re-grading will be allowed to retain their existing grade, however no further applications for re-grading will be considered for a period of 6 years. These rules will be applied if, after a thorough investigation, an individual is found to be in breach of either rule.
