REPLY:

As reported to the last meeting of the committee it was proposed to have the works, identified during inspections of a number of addresses, tendered and carried out by a private contractor with experience in this area as one project as soon as possible.  It was reported that a small number have still not been examined due to failure to achieve access despite repeated attempts, calls and card-deliveries.  It was agreed to hold off on the advertising of the tender pending inspections of a small number of addresses where it has been impossible to gain access.  Despite best efforts it has only been possible in the past month to gain access to 2 additional units. 

In light of the delay it is now considered best to advertise the tender despite not having reports on the outstanding properties.  The tender documents will be prepared by Architects’ Department and undertaken using the fastest procurement route.

These properties that have proven impossible to inspect will be contacted one final time and if appropriate included in the proposed remedial works programme put in place.
