[Gill Reed @noisydiddy]

@TheJUAC @medical_xpress Professor Peto estimates 200-300 pupils at UK schools in the 1960s and 1970s die each year from mesothelioma due to exposure in their schools. Shockingly the Asbestos is still in our schools.

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

JUAC's position?
The identification and removal of unsafe #asbestos needs an agreed resourced and detailed plan
JUAC is calling on government to properly fund and resource the removal of asbestos from schools. #asbestosinschools

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

JUAC agrees with Professor Peto's statement to the Education Select Committee in 2013, “All that matters is whether or not kids are breathing in #asbestos and, until you find that out, everything else is hot air.” #asbestosinschools

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

In a paper in 2016 Peto stated, ’The risk from asbestos to younger people in buildings is not known but could be substantial’ #asbestosinschools

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

JUAC disagrees with experts, such as Professor Peto, who suggest that it is not worth the risk in removing #asbestos from schools, the same experts have forecast for over 20 years that deaths from mesothelioma will decline. The latest mesothelioma figures show how wrong they are

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

JUAC says that the judgment of the #HSE that #asbestos is best left “in situ” if it is in a good condition is now demonstrably invalid, because comprehensive information on the condition of #asbestosinschools is still not available

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

Make the results of #asbestos surveys available to all staff and parents of each school #asbestosinschools

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

Increasing resources to the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) and restore proactive
inspections by them in schools #asbestosinschools

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

Training of all school staff on how #asbestos should be managed in schools #asbestosinschools

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

Establishing a mandatory survey of all schools ensuring that it is known exactly where the #asbestos is present and the condition of the asbestos - #asbestosinschools

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

The development of a planned, phased and costed programme of removal of all
#asbestos from schools

[Asbestos Campaign @TheJUAC]

It is JUAC's position that serious action needs to be taken now to deal with #asbestosinschools throughout the UK.
The following are the measures that JUAC advocates
