Yes, but radio technique is different than LP. There are lots of pilots with an L6 ELP, for example, but poor radio technique. It shouldn’t be that way, but one benefit of an IR is that one is pretty much forced to acquire proper radio technique…..
Well, both are trained and examined in the process of getting your PPL. So why there are people who posses a valid RT (let alone with LP6) and STILL have bad RT, is beyond me.

Look at the public outcry, when some EU-proposal got known to potentially limit driving licenses to (a) five years with retest (b) day only for beginners, (c) maximum weight/power for beginners.
That one was a very interesting press hype yet again. Apparently most of those “EU proposed” measures are the wet dream of ONE French green parlamentarian who proposed them only to got shouted down in comission and parliament, but still decided to make them known to a wider public. Or, quite possibly, someone else did for her in order to incense public outrage in order to generate pressure to rebuke them. In any case, they hopefully won’t be implemented and if so, legally challenged, as they are hugely discriminatory.
It’s easy to have ELP6 and not know how to use the radio. Come to England
