The Northern Ireland Construction Group was formally set up and met this morning to provide a forum for MLAs from across the political divide to discuss current issues relating to the industry.
Constituent Members include among others:
Construction Employers Federation (CEF) / Quarry Products Association Northern Ireland (QPANI) / Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS)
Some of the topics that the group will discuss will include:
Planning / Housing / Government Construction Expenditure and Building Programme / Training / Design Quality / Regeneration and the Review of Public Administration.
It is proposed that the NI Assembly Construction Group will meet three times a year….in the current climate we think they might be up in Stormont a little more!
