According to Regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations (CAR 2006), if you own, occupy, manage or have responsibility for property you have a legal duty to assess and manage the risk from ACM. You must take reasonable steps to identify ACM, if necessary, by presuming the presence of asbestos until proven otherwise.
The cornerstone of an Asbestos Management Plan is an Asbestos Register. This will list areas where ACM are present, highlight the risks posed and make recommendations. More often than not the ACM can remain in situ. In our experience, the majority of asbestos within buildings is not high risk.
www.flat-living.co.uk has teamed up with Bureau Veritas to provide a range of Asbestos Management Services.
