Posted By Bob Youel A lot of asbestos registers that I have viewed do not include within them all the areas that asbestos may be present e.g. they tend to appraise the structure i.e. walls, floors, ceilings etc but some miss electrical fuse boxes, fume cupboards, hot plates, bunsen burner stations and similar 'different' areas Just a reminder so as you miss nothing

Posted By Robert K Lewis Registers will only ever record presumed or determined ACMs and are only as good as that situation - you must then presume the rest has a foreseeable likelihood of asbestos presence. Subject of course to the magic 2000 date Bob

Posted By Dave Wilson And of course the Register has to be incorporated into an Asbestos Management Plan. Surveys and registers in isolation are not good enough.
