T
he Specialist Engineering Contractor’s (SEC) Group has welcomed publication of the Construction Leadership Council (CLC)
Industry Recovery Plan Roadmap to Recovery. SEC Group wants to see an industry and government response which ensures rapid implementation of the various recommendations. The plan builds on previous work and much of what’s proposed has been identified and developed through industry initiatives and consultations – emphasis and urgency has been added by the current challenging circumstances. The benefits of collaboration and fair payment are well known and accepted and comprehensively covered in the CLC’s Procure for Value report. The Group further supports the emphasis
on fairer contractual and payment practices throughout the supply chain and will work closer
within the sub-sector plans on this. This recovery plan and the cross-industry agreement on which it’s based can be the catalyst which overcomes past inability to achieve the necessary progress for change.
SEC Group’s chairman Trevor Hursthouse said it
was now vital to bring forward pipelines of work and to get the cash flowing as soon as possible to all layers of the construction supply chain. He added: “The CLC Recovery Plan has all the right ingredients – we must hope that industry and government can transform the best of intentions into realities to maintain a strong and vibrant construction industry capable of playing its crucial part in rebuilding UK economy”. SEC Group will be engaged in the work required
to bring the Recovery Plan to fruition for the specialist sector.
Chillventa cancelled due to Covid-19 T
he ongoing coronavirus pandemic with its effects on the global economy has prompted NürnbergMesse to cancel
Chillventa 2020 and hold a virtual event in its place.
“This wasn’t an easy decision,” said Petra Wolf, member of the management board of NürnbergMesse. “To gauge the mood of the industry, we carried out an extensive survey of the more than 800 exhibitors from around the world who registered for 2020 and all the visitors who attended Chillventa 2018. The results informed our decision to cancel Chillventa for this year.”
The decision follows the cancellation of the rescheduled Mostra in September and is the latest casualty of global social distancing as a result of Covid-19. In line with this, the institute of Refrigeration has taken the decision to cancel this year’s IOR Northern Regional Branch Dinner due to take place on 01 October 2020. Chairman Matt Morton said: ‘Regretfully we
have decided that with the Covid-19 issues still prevalent in the North that we have to cancel this year’s Dinner. We have waited until now to take this decision but we feel we couldn’t risk the health of our colleagues and friends.’
