    "description": "Following investigations, Almond Housing Association ('AHA') have identified 242nr properties within its housing stock where Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete ('RAAC') roof panels are present. The properties were all built between 1966-68 with original flat roof construction (formed using RAAC panels) with an Asbestos containing bituminous roof felt covering. Subsequently, pitched roof structures comprising timber trusses were added in the late 1980's. Recent engineer structural condition surveys have identified planned RAAC remedial/removal works that are required at the earliest opportunity. (SC Ref:793698)",
