THE INDUSTRY HAD ITS SAY... NOW COME AND HEAR THE GOVERNMENT'S RESPONSES

摘要

As part of our preparations for the Government Construction Summit next month we asked you, the Building readership, to give us your views on government policy and performance. The response reflected the passion and intelligence of the construction industry. Five hundred people took part in our questionnaire, many taking the time to give us robust and detailed responses. In the past public sector construction has accounted for 40% of the total market, so when policy or funding changes radically it affects your livelihood and business plans. It's clear from the polling results that the industry is still suffering from the spending cuts and programme cancellations that came after the Comprehensive Spending Review in 2010.
