RAAC (Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete)

08 September 2023

Cllr James Gibson-Watt, Leader of Powys County Council, said: "At present, we are not aware of any local authority schools in the county that contain RAAC.

"The council previously investigated the matter in 2020. However, following the recent developments and the additional guidance that has been issued, we are now in the process of undertaking a small number of additional survey inspections of our schools and the wider corporate estate.

"Surveys on the highest priority buildings have already been completed with no evidence of RAAC being present.

"We are working hard to ensure all other surveys are completed as soon as possible and we expect to conclude the additional work within the next few days."
