Industry leaders hopeful new B.C. cabinet focuses on prompt payment - constructconnect.com - Journal Of Commerce

December 12, 2022

Atchison was keen to hit the ground running with MLA Andrew Mercier, who was appointed to a new cabinet position as minister of state for workforce development.“I think it’s a natural acknowledgement of where his strengths lie and I think he’ll be good in the role,” said Atchison. Atchison said Selina Robinson, who is now minister of post secondary education and future skills, is an “excellent choice for the portfolio.”

He said prompt payment may not be on the top of the public’s mind but it has important connections to big portfolio items for the government such as housing affordability as it would “help manage construction costs.” He said the ECABC will be “working with like minded associations for the construction sector to encourage government to make prompt payment a priority for the spring legislative session.”“Anytime you have members of cabinet who have worked in and understand the construction sector, I think that’s good for the construction industry in general.”

Brynn Bourke, executive director of BC Building Trades, was also optimistic about working with Mercier.
