Asbestos—worker safety

Ms Stephen-Smith (in reply to a question by Mr Doszpot on Thursday, 16 February 2017):

There is no requirement for air monitoring results to be collected by WorkSafe ACT as they are collected by the Procurement and Capital Works Division and are made available for inspection with all other site documentation held by the principal demolition contractor. If any results are outside the acceptable limits WorkSafe ACT is immediately informed.

Asbestos—removal

Ms Stephen-Smith (in reply to a question and a supplementary question by Mr Parton on Thursday, 16 February 2017):

(1) As air monitoring results on the boundaries of Mr Fluffy properties have shown no detection of asbestos fibres, there has been no need to inspect neighbouring properties. Some testing of neighbouring properties has been conducted to address specific concerns received by neighbours in some instances but no detection of asbestos fibres was made.

(2) Appropriate clearance certificates are issued for every remediated site by a licensed asbestos assessor.
