This is what construction firms really think of CITB and its levy👇

House builders and public bodies get biggest CITB training grants | @ConstructionEnq constructionenquirer.com/202…
Overturning a process backed by government & large contractors was always going to be a long shot.
BUT
Our campaign & contributions mean that the spotlight firmly focused on the board & how they spend levy payers money🔎💰

The decline in construction apprenticeships threatens the levelling-up agenda and the UK’s ability to ‘build back better’ from the pandemic. 38% of Master Builders are struggling to hire bricklayers & 34% are unable to recruit carpenters 👉 bit.ly/3zphOcZ

What’s going on in @CITB_Wales?
The region where millions were given by CITB to Uni of Wales Trinity St David which then secured Sarah Beale an honorary degree.
People are saying CITB have ran out of cash and sacked them without notice!

Yet another example of @CITB_UK failure👇
Only 10% of construction businesses engage with schools.
CITB website states 'It's our job to work with industry to encourage training'
What is industry paying a levy for?!
#Scrapthelevy #BuildersAgainstLevy #NotFitForPurpose
According to CITB, only 10% of construction businesses engage with schools. No wonder students have such a poor perception of our industry!

🚨@nfbuilders taking a big stand against @CITB_UK
Great to see a trade federation speaking out on behalf of its members.
Well said @nfbuilders!
We await your response @CITB_UK.
In the meantime, here is a reminder of how much levy was paid last year by members of the 'prescribed organisations' responsible for keeping @CITB_UK in power.
