Good morning, sir. Good morning. It was the chancellor who took to the airwaves to try and reassure the public that the government had matters under control. Welcome back to the studio, chancellor.

We will spend what it takes to sort out this problem as quickly as possible. So do you commit to covering whatever costs are required to remove all of this dangerous concrete from schools around the country . We will spend what it takes to make sure that children can go to school safely, yes.

The government says it is acting now because the guidance changed after a raac beam collapsed in a school last week. The beam had previously been thought safe. Raac was used in public buildings from the 19505 to the mid 1990s because it was quicker to manufacture than traditional Reinforced Concrete and easier to install. As you can see, it is fairly lightweight and you can probably see the air bubbles through the concrete itself. It is
