12) Are there any provisions which discuss apprentices?

"Apprentices" means those persons registered individually under a bonafide apprenticeship program registered with the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training in the United States Department of Labor. The state agency contracting officer shall require the contractor or subcontractor using the apprentice to submit evidence of his indenture and/or apprenticeship registration when the apprentices' name first appears on a submitted payroll.
