Manager jailed over forged gas safety reports

The project manager of a housing development who forged reports that plots were safe from gas underneath has been jailed for seven months.

Sixty-year old Allan Mclean, of Seaforth Terrace, Bonnyrigg, pled guilty previously at Edinburgh Sheriff Court to presenting fake Gas Membrane Validation reports for a Cruden Homes development at Newtongrange in 2016 that was being built on an old mining site.
