In a discussion with NFB Chief Executive, Richard Beresford, Chairman, Kevin Hogwood and Board Member, John Maddock, Ms McVey discussed some of the challenges currently facing the industry and possible ways to resolve some of those.
The industry faces challenges including the impact of rising material costs and supply chain disruptions on construction projects, as well as a widening skills gap risking a supply of highly trained workers.
Richard Beresford, Chief Executive of the NFB, said: "We were privileged to host Ms McVey and engage in such open and informative dialogue about the vital role builders play in our economy.
"Her understanding of the challenges we face, from material costs to skills shortages, was truly refreshing, and we particularly appreciate her commitment to building a stronger relationship between the NFB and Tatton, a key area for construction activity."
