Just a quick paragraph about Acocks Green Library. Stewart and I attended a site meeting this morning with representatives of the contractors and the City Council. We've confirmed that the asbestos testing is to be carried out around the roof lights on Friday, with scaffolders on site to provide temporary towers around each of the areas so that the testing can be completed as quickly as possible. It is expected to be done within the day, but there is a possibility that it might run over into Saturday.
The testing is only usually done close to the start of work because it is destructive - physical samples have to be removed from the fabric of the building.
We'll have the results of that testing early next week and that should allow us to move forward reasonably rapidly to get the works properly underway.
