How can this be advertised after the fact? Surely this is a mistake? It must have been advertised somewhere?

You will be pleased to know that there are at least three Federation members on this committee so far.  There are also some Master Plumber members and some people that are members of neither group.  There is a representative from the PGDB and SKILLS.  It is in the very early stages - so if you are interested then you should certainly put your name forward.  It is a very important job - feeding back from our apprentices and industry.
Have you learned lessons only of those who admired you, and were tender with you, and stood aside for you?  Have you not learned great lessons from those who braced themselves against you, and disputed the passage with you?  (Walt Whitman 1819-1891)  American Poet
