Or time to limit the number of players at all levels , that premier league teams have on their books and stop them hovering up all the talent, only to throw most away at the first opportunity

In my opinion, loans should be used for emergency cover or, in the absence of a reserve side and league, for allowing players otherwise sidelined (injury, out of favour) to get in some game time. Let's say 2 weeks for a loan duration, with one further fortnight's extension allowed. Limit loans to, say, 5 players maximum per team, and further limit the number allowed in a match-day squad, say 3 (and that's being generous).
Too often now loans are used as fundamental building-blocks for a side -- witness Crichlow now for us -- which might be good in the short term, but bad in the long.

The broken loan system, EPPP and the whole culture of PL clubs amassing gigantic squads of youngsters with the sole purpose of making more profit by restricting smaller clubs access to talent is another reason why we need an independent regulator to come in and enforce some rules that are beneficial to the sport as a whole rather than to a few clubs at the top of the pile.
Personally I'd ban loans or at the very least put some rules in place to redress the balance in the favour of the smaller club but there's no way that will happen any time soon because if the PL got wind of anything like that they'd just threaten to stop the "solidarity payments" and the EFL clubs will step right back in to line. -
