ASBG considers the Protocol for the management of asbestos found in C&D recycling facilities, in its current form, to be economically unworkable for the sector. Use of a more flexible and efficient Protocol can provide a basis for a NSW C&D sector wide approach to managing asbestos. The submission provides recommendations on improving the practicality of the Protocol, with an emphasis on further consultation with the C&D recyclers. It is important to prepare a workable document as this Protocol is likely to be the basis for similar documents. An efficient and pragmatic asbestos management process is required to assist in the removal and proper disposal of the material from NSW communities. The full submission is downloadable below.
