Question
To ask the Scottish Government, further to the answer to question S6W-19778 by Graeme Dey on 25 July 2023, when the Scottish Funding Council guidance on reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete will be delivered.
Answer
The Scottish Funding Council (SFC) wrote to all college and university principals on 8 August 2023 highlighting the issue of reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) and where they can find guidance on the identification and assessment of RAAC.
The SFC has asked all colleges and universities to provide information on the presence of RAAC in their estate buildings.
The Scottish Government and SFC are working closely together on this matter; and SFC will keep principals informed of further guidance and sources of information.
