-----or a sole trader? What is the definition of a builder? The Minister of State went on to state:
These will likely be house builders and non-residential builders. Registration for various trades will happen subsequently.
This is not to say that there are not some very skilled builders out there but I was always of the mind that traditionally, the tradespeople were the builders. In my experience, the carpenter or block-layer who was the lead and the builder was the company. Is there a definition of a builder as opposed to trades, which are well defined?
