On the 16th November an intrusive survey identified the presence of RAAC in a building situated on top of the main building at the Cardiff Westgate Street Office. The rest of the main building is all clear and the presence of RAAC is confined to the small building on top. As a mitigation it was decided to close most of the floors in the main building and only use the first floor for operational staff. Non-operational staff will therefore work from home or from other offices.
Next Steps
Local Trade Union Reps will continue to work and liaise with the employer and in the coming days (no later than Friday) we await a further report which will decide what action needs to be taken to make the whole building safe for use.
