CITB has announced that it will be submitting proposals for a one‐year Levy Order in 2025 due to the Industrial Training Board (ITB) review. This means that Consensus, which was due to take place between February and April 2024, will now be delayed by a year until early 2025. Subject to approval from the Secretary of State, the one‐year Levy Order will allow CITB to raise Levy income whilst taking into account the recommendations of the ITB review when setting out its proposals for the next three‐year Levy order to start in 2026.
The ITB review, which has been commissioned by the Department for Education (DfE) to determine whether CITB and ECITB are performing effectively, is expected to report its findings in January 2024.
