Written Question
Construction Industry Training Board: Glaziers
Monday 16th July 2018

Asked by: Marion Fellows (Scottish National Party - Motherwell and Wishaw)

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference the Industrial Training (Construction Board) Order 1964 (Amendment) Order 1992, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of extending the scope of the Construction Industry Training Board to include glaziers.

Answered by Anne Milton

Matters of extending the scope to include glazers would be for the Construction Industry Training Board to determine.

It is important Industry Training Boards (ITBs) are able to both keep up with developments in their industries and help them to modernise and improve productivity. This may mean that the scope of the ITBs (which determines whether employers are liable to pay the levies and who may claim grants) needs to evolve.
