HIA has been proud to be a key organisation working closely with the Tasmanian Government to provide education, training and support for men and women wishing to start their exciting career in the growing residential construction industry.
“An incoming government must continue to invest in residential construction training and apprenticeships, to support and grow the residential construction industry. This is essential for Tasmania to build the housing for our future, to meet the demand for housing that has not been met with sufficient supply.
“Extending the High Vis Army initiative to the plumbing and electrical industry associations is a sensible approach, recognising the integral role that all trades and professions play in developing our built environment.
“HIA continues to encourage all parties to focus election commitments and policies to prioritise incentives, and support, for the residential construction sector.
“HIA’s members are ready and equipped to build the housing of the future for Tasmanians, to meet the demand for new homes and ease the current supply constraints impacting on Tasmanian families,” Mr Price concluded.
