Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps his Department is taking to ensure that the government endorsed Trustmark scheme protects consumers from rogue traders.

Asked by:
Sarah Hall (Labour)

Answer

This Government is working to ensure we have a high-quality and professional construction industry, with consumer protection at its heart. We work closely with TrustMark, which is sponsored by the Department and licenced by the Government, as the Government Endorsed Quality Scheme that covers work a consumer chooses to have carried out in or around their home.

The Government is supporting TrustMark to continue to further its ability to improve the quality of the information it has and to identify firms and individuals that pose a risk to consumers.
