Tattoo shop regulations

My husband and I just opened a tattoo shop in La.And La. like many states today has certain health dept regs that must be met before one can open a shop  they address sterility,shop repair,and cleanliness.as well as artist bloodborne pathogene and C.P.R. and A.E.D. training. once these thing are in place the health dept will issue you a permit to tattoo.But here comes the kicker,no one ever bothers to see if you can really tattoo.their are no tests .no reviews,no questions about the art.where you learned,who taught you,no portfolio review. I feel like this is  the problem of so many tattoo shop and so few real artists.
