Construction leaders have met Skills Minister Matt Hancock and the Government's construction adviser Peter Hansford at 11 Downing Street to discuss a new ten point plan to reinvigorate the construction industry.
Developed under the sector's 'Construction4Growth' (C4G) campaign, the plan, which aims to secure close collaboration between the construction industry and Government would: help lead the UK out of recession and back into growth; provide young people with a lifelong skill and a bright future and; help the environment whilst generating thousands of jobs.
Providing solutions to deliver changes that will have the biggest and most positive impact on the UK economy is central to the plan. These include:
James Wates, Chairman of CITB-ConstructionSkills said: "The plan that the industry has developed and discussed with Government this morning builds on existing commitments and puts forward new, realistic ideas that we believe will have a significant impact on the economy.
"The Construction Skills Network figures published yesterday show that, in partnership with government, we need to grasp the moment and make a concerted and co-ordinated effort to ensure that the industry is in a position to help itself to help the UK economy."
