Westbourne estate , Roman Way N7
Dear Islington Borough Council,
Under the Freedom of Information act 2000 and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004, could you please provide the asbestos register for the Westbourne Estate, Roman Way N7.
I am personally concerned about the poor state of the various roofs on the estate.
- Could you please provide documented evidence of the composition of these roofs.
- What are the tiles composition?
- Does any of these roofs contain asbestos?
- Considering the close proximity to a school and various playgrounds is the council planning a thorough regeneration/refurbishment of these buildings to make the area safer both environmentally and crime wise. If yes please provide details and time frame.
Thank you
Yours faithfully,
Lauretta Chassard

Dear Islington Council,
Could you please advise if the Information requested 2 months ago will be sent today (the latest deadline)
The info requested should be readily available to the council since it is of the upmost importance prior to urgent work, refurbishment etc. It should be taking so long.
Please advise.
