Commenting on today's announcement in the budget that a UK-wide vehicle scrappage scheme is to be introduced, The Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI) says:
"There have been many arguments from across the sector for and against the introduction of a scrappage scheme, however we hope that today's announcement by the Government will provide a boost to new car sales market and in turn have a positive impact across the automotive retail industry securing jobs and boosting consumer confidence in what is a dynamic sector of employment."
"We urge employers to use this decision as the impetus to ensure staff are adequately trained to meet customer demand and to invest in adequate skills provision for the future."
