FAQs
Asbestos Management Inverness FAQs
Is a survey the same as a management plan?
No. The survey supplies building evidence. The management plan explains how the dutyholder will control and review the risk.
Who has the duty to manage?
Regulation 4 generally applies to those with responsibility for maintenance and repair of relevant non-domestic premises and applicable common parts, subject to the legal arrangements.
How should contractors access asbestos information?
Relevant information should be available and checked before maintenance or construction is authorised.
Does the management plan need reviewing?
Yes. It should be updated when condition, occupancy, planned works, removals, survey information or responsibilities change.
