(a) The Heritage Council has not sought a response from the owners in regards to Structerre's report of March 2012.
(b)  The Structerre report observed that some elements of the building that are not of heritage significance and form part of the scope for demolition upon the pending redevelopment may require stabilisation in the future to remain in a safe condition prior to redevelopment. The report also noted that the stabilised facades, which form part of the identified cultural heritage significance of the place and will be retained in the redevelopment, remain stable.
In its report Structerre said that at the time of inspection, it did not believe that additional stabilisation is required.
