Video: TalkBack: Paul Morrell, OBE

Already widely known as the head of Davis Langdon, Paul is now the conduit between the construction industry and government; he explains his main roles and remits and the importance of 'starting a conversation' between the two parties.

Paul expands on the main tasks ahead, including how the industry will de-carbonise, the government's intention to ensure the bottom of the supply chain receives payment as promptly as the top, and his take on the pros and cons of PFI.

Among other things, Paul explains why the Taj Mahal is his favourite building, why conglomeration is not necessarily a good thing and the extent of his father's influence on him – all of which give a valuable insight into arguably the most influential man in construction.
