This week’s best question was - “Who governs your industry?” The simple answer was “no one”, but that does not explain the real situation. With a mind switch, the PGD Act could be looked at as an Act to empower an industry Board to govern the industry. The industry already funds the Board and everything it does so why not have the Board Govern the industry.

As an industry are we stuck on a Hamster Wheel? Lets get off and get progression.

To ignore the needs of the industry is to risk the health and safety of New Zealanders as the Plumbing Gasfitting and Drainlaying industry is one of the few industries that actually perform a preventative function. What are your thoughts?
