CITB seeks employers’ views on levy proposals for 2026-29 

During the four-week engagement period, CITB will host a series of webinars for construction employers to provide information on the draft levy proposals. 

The sessions will provide an opportunity for registered CITB employers in England, Scotland and Wales to share their feedback. Views can be provided during the webinars or through Citizen Space, an online consultation channel. 

Feedback gathered during the consultation will be collated for the Levy Strategy Committee – an independent group of industry representatives and external specialists – which will provide guidance and recommendations to the CITB board before it submits final levy proposals to the secretary of state for education. 

Tim Balcon, chief executive of CITB, said: “Consultation is an integral part of CITB’s Consensus process for reaching industry agreement on the next three-year Levy Order. 

“We need the views of employers to help inform our proposals, ensuring that the skills and training we provide meet their requirements and help deliver the workforce desperately needed to get Britain building again.” 

Following the consultation period, CITB will measure consensus in early 2025.
