The Government's crackdown on cowboy builders is seen as a step in the right direction.  

Building and Construction Minister Chris Penk says there'll be more transparency about suspended builders, stronger discipline, and an improved complaints process.  

Master Builders CEO Ankit Sharma told Mike Hosking the current disciplinary system doesn't provide enough of a deterrent as it's very slow, lacks transparency, and many consumers don't even know it exists.  

He says this will try to improve the system to a level where they can not only address the small instances of bad performance, but also provide more transparency to homeowners.
