Council to be prosecuted for Asbestos breaches

From Nick Tiratsoo

Hi all,

Ive just heard that, following a detailed complaint made by myself and Trevor Calver, the Heath and Safety Executive (HSE) is taking the Council to court over breaches of

the Health & Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 Section 2(1)
the Health & Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 Section 3(1)
the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2006, regulation 4(8)

with summonses being served earlier week.

This follows a long HSE investigation focusing on the Town Hall between 2009 and 2012. 

The hearing is set for 30 July, and there is no indication yet how LBWF intends to plead.
