AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. (1) The department’s records show that, to date, 12 requests have been received by its call centre to repair roof leaks at Lynwood Senior High School since 1 July 2007 and have been promptly attended to and repaired. (2) (a) Because of the frequency of callouts, a detailed condition report of the roof and gutters on all buildings at the school was immediately conducted and has been completed. The report identifies areas of roof cladding that are damaged and require replacement. In addition, the report identifies gutters and downpipes that are rusted and require replacement. The cost estimate for this work is in the order of $350 000. (b) The report and cost estimates have been provided to the Department of Education and Training.
