NFB asks CITB to cancel 2020 levy

The National Federation of Builders (NFB) has today written to the chief executive of the CITB, Sarah Beale, asking that CITB consider cancelling the 2020 levy, to help aid cash-flow in the construction industry.

Commenting in the letter, Richard Beresford, chief executive of the National Federation of Builders (NFB) said:

“It is highly likely that many companies will not survive this crisis and it is therefore our collective duty to do everything possible to protect as many construction businesses as we can. I am grateful for the temporary suspension that the CITB has announced in respect of collection of the 2020 levy but we must now go a step further”.
