Emerging findings on the challenges and opportunities for the construction sector have been published by the Low Carbon Construction Innovation and Growth Team (IGT).
The IGT, headed by Chief Construction Adviser Paul Paul Morrell, is due to deliver its final report at the end of 2010. The group was established on 17 September 2010 by Business Secretary Lord Mandelson.
The interim findings identify four major opportunities for the sector if the challenges and barriers are effectively addressed:
- to carry out a huge programme of work, stretched out over at least the next 40 years
- to make use of that workload to reform the structure and practice of the industry
- to export the products and skills of a modernised industry
- to excite future generations of potential recruits into an industry with a noble cause.
