ELEVEN individuals from the public and private sector of Victoria's building industry received the Continuing Professional Development award yesterday.
Parliamentary Secretary for Planning Jenny Mikakos said with Victoria’s $17 billion dollar building industry operating at consistently strong levels, it is vital that mechanisms are in place between government and industry stakeholders to aid an efficient and competitive building industry, encourage investment and foster innovation.
