Status
Withdrawn	5/1/23 Reason: On March 14, 2023, the Board for Contractors voted to withdraw this action. The Board was advised by the Office of Attorney General to withdraw this regulatory action and refile it as an exempt action. Section 54.1-1131 provides an examination exemption for individuals applying for a tradesman license that have completed an apprenticeship program approved by the Commissioner of Labor and Industry. As a result, the regulation is more restrictive than the statute, and must be amended.
