After a thorough testing process, Liverpool City Council’s Moore Street building has been found to be safe for use and Council is making plans to resume full occupancy of the building.
Level six of the building was cleared in May after current and former council staff members working in the building over varying periods of time were diagnosed with thyroid cancer.
The testing process – covering ionising radiation, radiofrequency electromagnetic energy levels (prompted by concerns about a nearby mobile phone base station) and building occupational health – found no identifiable health hazard in the building.
The apparent cancer cluster, although unusual, would appear to have occurred by chance. Council thanks those who were diagnosed with cancer for their co-operation and wishes them well for their future health.
