Office of Fair Trading Report into Asbestos Awareness Training price "recommendations"

The OFT has published its report, available through the following link:

http://www.oft.gov.uk/news-and-updates/press/2013/29-13#.UVG51xxQbIc

It details prices "recommended" by training organisations.

This report will ensure that all asbestos awareness training providers will now be able to offer courses at a price that they believe is competitive in the marketplace rather than at a "recommended" price.

C&D have always tried to ensure that courses are available at a price that our customer can afford rather than try to dictate the price to the customer and we are pleased to see that OFT have looked at this issue.

Now that OFT have looked at asbestos awareness training, will they look at other training where one organisation has a monopoly on particular courses? If so we could see some major changes in demolition and plant training in the next 12 months.
