Unfortunately the industry gets FA say. The board is not there for the industry. They're there to keep the public safe from incompetent plumbers

The Minister apparently. Right now the best thing you can do is not vote for National or their allies........

brilliant idea badger we get togeather an auckland contingent and roll on to auckland harbour bridge in the city bound lane around 6:30am and park up and block all the lanes to the city maybes that will get there attention!...and it will let them know where the actual power lies and it is actually a democratic system that they operate in and majority have rule!....and as well in wellington block the western arterial route to the city...christchurch we will leave out cus those poor buggers have had enough strife in there life recently...invercargill...whangarei...hamilton...gisborne...etc etc, if we made a showing in these main centres around the country they would have to stop and listen!...All it will take is one hour each morning for say three to four days with a diffrent location chosen each day so they couldnt predict our movments and we would start to show them that enough is enough...for christ sake all we want is a system that doesnt rob us blind and is based on equality and fairness and one that adheers to the law and one that does not crusifiy people for being human and making the odd mistake!

The OAG made it very clear that the fees were wrong the tardiness of the board was wrong the secercey with which the board operated was wrong the manner in which the board treated the working horse(tradesmen) of the industry was wrong and yet
NOTHING has changed at the pgdb is same old same old and i for one am getting very sick of it!.

One thing ive learnt in this country of ours is the ones that make the most noise are the ones that get action! in this country if you dont take action then no action will be taken to rectify the problem!

STAND UP AND BE COUNTED PEOPLE!

I was thinking more a drive up to the beehive. I personally don't want to mess people about who are just trying to get to work to feed their families and go about their daily business (which is what we would be actually protesting about, to be left alone to get on with our lives and provide for our families).  Also I think 300 vans in Wellington would have much more impact than 300 spread over the whole of NZ.

All trades, builders, sparkys and their concerned customers, who ultimately will shoulder the burden of the extra costs. We should be able to muster a couple of people to make an impact and show our distaste for what is going on, and raise awareness.

Just a suggestion
