City of Parramatta Council has developed an Asbestos Management Policy and guideline that details Council commitment to safely managing the risks associated with asbestos materials in our local community.
The policy and guideline are based upon the Model Asbestos Policy for NSW Councils developed by the Heads of Asbestos Coordination Authorities to promote a consistent Local Government approach to asbestos management across NSW.
The policy and guideline should be read in conjunction with relevant legislation, state government policies and codes of practice relevant to the management of asbestos. The policy and guideline do not constitute legal advice.
