Four months ago, Wellington Water said plumbers weren’t qualified to repair the capital’s water crisis.
However, it's now been revealed that they're more qualified than Wellington Water's own workforce.
Master Plumbers Chief Executive Greg Wallace told Heather du Plessis-Allan “The Workplace Development Council have agreed the NZQA standards that plumbers do, are more than what Wellington Water requires.”
Wallace said “In February, [Wellington Water] told us they had a workforce crisis, and they couldn’t fix the 3,572 leaks at the time.”
He said they make things as difficult as possible.
