I have just met with the manager form our sports centre,
who is extremely anxious about all of the new legislation
coming into play.
Problem - When he proposed building modifications, he was
told that due the sports hall winning architure awards
during the 1960's for design etc, no building modifications
can be made!!(unless thay are small, inside the building
and not permanent fixtures ie they can be removed easily!!!)
Does anyone have any info on how this can be overuled, and
if there are any ways around such a problem.
Does QAA, DDA and human rights act have any bite behind it,
with issues like this one????
Cheers
Carrie
