Dear Sir or Madam,

Please see below answer to your follow up questions.

Q .I am saying that your trust had one structural issue, as of 29/09/22 (the date of my request).

A. This is correct.

Q. I am saying the issue was corrosion of re-bar (reinforcement) at Queen Alexandra Hospital. If any of this is inaccurate, please tell me right away.

A. This is inaccurate the Trust response was “ We are aware of one area of the hospital that has some structural works to be carried out. The area of the hospital that has issues to be resolved is a service tunnel between the main hospital and the boiler house.”
To clarify, the structural issue relates to concrete spalling..
