Skills card boss promises reform and end to conflict

摘要

The industry's skills card scheme, CSCS, will look to resolve its commercial differences with the scheme's administrator CITB-ConstructionSkills by the end of the year, CSCS' new boss has said. In his first interview since taking charge in April, CSCS chief executive Graham Wren said both organisations had agreed to make a "fresh start" in their relations. In early 2011 the CITB put its contract to administer the skills card scheme for 1.7 million workers on notice. Wren admitted the scheme had to reform "quickly" to make up for "the view that time was lost" during disputes with the CITB and industry employers.
