Jeremy Hunt vows to ‘spend what it takes’ to tackle school concrete crisis
Chancellor says asbestos in some of same buildings could complicate efforts to fix Raac problem in EnglandJeremy Hunt has promised to “spend what it takes” to deal with the crumbling concrete crisis, as he admitted ministers were also responding to fears the problem was compounded by the longstanding asbestos problem in schools.
Asbestos, which is believed may be present in some of the same buildings affected by reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (Raac), could complicate the issue as the government faces increasing pressure to reveal the full list of schools containing the concrete.
There are growing demands for transparency over the extent of the consequences of Raac in public buildings on the weekend before millions of children are due to return to classes after the summer holidays.
