The NAS is committed to representing its members effectively during the CITB 2026 Levy Order process. To ensure that our Members’ views are considered, the NAS has outlined a comprehensive plan to brief eligible Members, gather feedback, and respond to CITB by the required deadline in April 2025.
The NAS Consensus end to end process will be directed by your NAS Skills Lead Amanda Scott adding “The membership of the NAS is one of 14 organisations with the power to vote for or against the new and incoming CITB levy order. Our team will make every effort to ensure your vote is collated with ease and your say on the guardianship of the levy is represented.”
What’s Happening?
- Briefing Members
NAS will brief Members on CITB’s Strategic Plan and the Levy Proposals for 2026. This will include sharing key information about the process, timelines, and requirements for participation in the Levy consensus. - Polling Members
NAS will poll Members to understand whether they support the proposed 2026 Levy Order. - Submitting a Response
The NAS will consolidate feedback from members and provide a formal response to CITB on behalf of the association.
How Will Members Be Engaged?
A dedicated team from the NAS is reaching out to eligible Members via email and telephone to ensure:
- Eligible Members are fully briefed on the consensus process, timelines, and response requirements.
- The correct authorised person in each organisation is identified and prepared to submit their voting preference.
This process is already underway and is expected to conclude by the end of 2024, ensuring all eligible Members are engaged and ready to participate.
