This morning's Herald has an article by John Walton highlighting the causes of the crisis in the construction industry.While opinions on the cures of what ails the industry proliferate in the media, few properly address the causes. This is understandable, as each industry player has its own perspective, but few address the cause. To date, Government intervention has focussed on the symptoms, rather than reflecting an understanding of the industry itself, and how we have a booming construction sector, with contractors going bust.https://www.nzherald.co.nz/opinion/news/article.cfm?c_id=466&objectid=12126267
