Building collapse - CIF look in the mirror

THE Construction Industry Federation are more than likely right when they claim that building output will decline significantly over the next year because Government projects are delayed but, still, they have a cheek.

Speculative building and land deals are two of the primary contributors to our current crisis and CIF members are largely responsible for that.

If Government has not got the resources to fast-track public developments it is because tax revenues, especially from the construction sector, have collapsed because of greed and poor business decisions.
