When is an asbestos control removal plan required to be prepared?
The asbestos removal control plan must be prepared before the licensed asbestos removal work commences.

The asbestos removal control plan must include details of:
    * how the asbestos removal will be carried out, including the method, tools, equipment and PPE to be used

Specifications or drawings that are relevant to the asbestos removal can also be attached to the asbestos removal control plan to provide additional information about the asbestos. Appendix A provides further detail of what can be in a comprehensive asbestos removal control plan.

Preparing the asbestos removal control plan
When preparing the asbestos removal control plan, the licensed asbestos removalist should consult with the person who commissioned the work, the person with management or control of the workplace (if not the same person), workers and their health and safety representatives.
For the same reasons, if licensed asbestos removal  work is being carried out at domestic premises, the licensed asbestos removalist should consult with the person who commissioned the removal work, the owner or the occupier (if not the same person).

Once the asbestos removal control plan is prepared, a copy must be:
    * given to the person who commissioned the licensed asbestos removal work
    * readily accessible on-site for the duration of the licensed asbestos removal work to:
       * a person conducting a business or undertaking at the workplace
       * workers and their health and safety representatives
       * the occupants of the premises (if domestic premises).
The asbestos removal control plan must also be made available for inspection under the WHS Act.
