Dear Rebecca Harrison,

 

 

FOI Request RE: Climate Change Agenda following COP26

 

 

I am writing to acknowledge that your Freedom of Information request has
been raised with the Interim Director of Estates and we can confirm that:

 

Yes, the College is aware of the Regulations.

We have a large number of buildings of which many are very poorly rated
and have been rated the same for many years with no change.

 

The College acknowledges that it has and our ageing estate and  is poorly
rated. However, the College is undergoing a £60 million pound
redevelopment of its campus where sustainability is incorporated in the
building plans. The college is 2 years into this development with 3-4
years remaining.

 

 

Thank you for taking the time to contact us.

 

Kind regards,

Quality
