        "riskDetails": "Given the age and historic nature of the Threadneedle Street estate and the fact that the last renewals programme was undertaken in 1942, the Bank considers that the underlying condition of the building is unknown to some degree. Certain investigations have already been undertaken during the early design stages, however to the extent any such items remain unknown, these may only be discoverable once the services and/or construction works to the Threadneedle Street estate commence and more fully access the underlying building and infrastructure. The precise consequences of any such discovery items and the impact on the provision of the works including the level of resource or specialist resources required and consequences on the programme are unknown at this stage."
