Greg Durkin: Building and Construction Industry Training Organisation director on the slowdown in the sector potentially impacting the number of apprentices

The recent slowdown in the construction sector could be reducing the number of people coming into apprenticeships.  Figures suggest the building industry has eased, with around 50k building consents in a 12-month period now dropping down to under 40k.  Building and Construction Industry Training Organisation director Greg Durkin told Mike Hosking that there's definitely been a drop, but he isn't concerned for apprentices.   He says his organisation has more than 16.5k apprentices at the moment and they are very busy.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
