Legislation and regulation is based on industry lobbying and advice. Politicians know absolutely nothing about construction - or any of the other sectors they make law for so have to rely on other sources. Therefore, blaming them is a bit pointless. Perhaps instead, we should be joining the lobbyists...

Or at least know what they are recommending and why.

I don't think anyone who hasn't spent a couple of years working, rather than being at Uni should be allowed to become a politician. And in situations where MP's may not have the experience & knowledge necessary they should be obliged to consult experts in that field, who should have the final say.
