To be fair, you can’t really blame the government on this front. Blame the greedy bastards at CSR and James Hardie for mining and selling the stuff even when they knew it caused cancer.
Gday Rambler,
Yes there is no doubt that CSR and JH were unscrupulous in using asbestos for many years as a commercial product after they knew the dangers of it.
In fact my father was exposed to extreme levels of asbestos when he was in the navy. He will most likely die from a respiratory related illness, but thankfully he is still pretty fit now and hopefully will continue to be into the future.
However the use of asbestos in building is not the issue here for that has been managed for many years now.
Pls see today’s post for more details that wont be found in The Age or the SMH.
