Just wondering guys who is getting the portfolio of covering up for these clowns at the Board?

Has there been any announcements yet?

yeah who...and I bet the fees will go up again as the new minister + board will need a pay increase for doing such a great job of doing nothing much to help an industry.

Well it looks like Nick Smith retains the portfolio so there should be no excuses about needing to get up to speed.

I guess we will just have to see if he can walk the talk now  :'(

Hi guys,( Smith will work on housing affordability and construction issues)quote from the press today.
hopefully he will work on the board to make sure that our trades will be affordable enough to stay in them instead of so many leaving the trades, cheers

The test will be what sort of accountability agreement he puts in place.
