Training provide gave collapsed contractor more money than any other firm

Carillion was given £7.3m by the Construction Industry Training Board in the year leading to its collapse – £600,000 more than any other company.

The CITB released its annual report yesterday, which revealed Carillion’s training arm CITC was given just over £5m for taking on apprentices, while the firm was given an additional £2.2m for upskilling and other training.

CITB paid grant money to Carillion up until 15 January, when the construction giant finally entered liquidation.
