Beyond Education Properties
After analysing the lessons learned, the exercise undertaken within the education sector can
be repeated in the health sector.
An AIC will be issued with every accredited asbestos survey to ensure that others benefit from
this approach. This will provide those managing and acquiring properties with clear guidance
on the asbestos risk present on a site whilst aiding legal practitioners when advising clients.
This approach will significantly reduce the costs associated with asbestos management while
providing better protection to property users.
Data capture will need to be amended, but this can be implemented easily and at
minimal additional cost. Ultimately, the risks associated with asbestos will be clearly
defined, leading to potential savings for property owners, managers, and society.
