Corporate Responsibility: NDCS gets message across to Welsh Assembly.

Sustainable Acoustics provided the technical evidence to the petitions committee of the Welsh Assembly in December 2014, as part of the NDCS submission and request to make sure that school acoustics standards are being implemented in Welsh Schools.

Currently acoustic testing is not mandatory in the new schools to be built, unless it is required as part of the building contract. As a result, the minimum standards are not always achieved in practice. The committee will now gather evidence from other sources and consider the submission. We will report back with news of the feedback.
