The NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) supply chain tracking is identifying schools for precautionary testing.

The decision to undertake precautionary testing is supported by the NSW Government Asbestos Taskforce, which includes representatives from NSW Health and the Department of Education.

The health and safety of our students and staff are our top priorities, and we are cooperating fully with the EPA in their investigations.
