Welcome to a new year where hopefully we can make change that will influence the industry and the country.

We all know that Governments over the years have treated tradespeople and trades poorly, yet have relied on them to be the backbone of the country. The compliance with the Government’s wishes have been imposed on the tradespeople at an ever increasing cost to the tradespeople and their industries.

The environment within our industry has resulted in a vicious circle of events. This hasn’t been caused BY the industry but more by the way we have been legislated and it’s not so much the Plumbers Gasfitters and Drainlayers Act 2006 but all the other legislation we get hit with. Read on for our view.
