Rob Rinder absolutely skewers Nick Gibb as schools minister crumbles under pressure of RAAC questioning
schools having buildings made from reinforced autoclaved aerated concreteThe DfE has been considering RAAC as a potential issue since 2018, and on Friday’s GMB, minister Gibb was in the hot seat as he was questioned by Rinder and Charlotte Hawkins.
He said RAAC had been thought to have been safe, but it emerged over the summer that it no longer was, so they ‘took the very big decision [to close schools] over the summer.’ ‘Well I can’t remember what that particular thing is about,’ Gibb insisted, with Rinder losing his patience and reminding him ‘it was about Raac, minister, it was about Raac! It’s what you said!’
But on GMB, under pressure from Hawkins and Rinder, he said the government would cover ‘capital cost,’ for example temporary accommodation. But he admitted revenue cost such as transport would come on a ‘case by case basis’ for schools. ‘Rob Rinder and Charlotte Hawkins currently handing Nick Gibbs his a**e on a plate,’ another cheered. ‘Absolutely wonderful.’
