asbestos ceiling?

    On my way down to my parent's place to remove some furniture. The ceiling has come down in one of the bedrooms due to a leak when the house was unoccupied. The house was built in the late 60s, early 70s and I am wondering if there is much chance that the ceiling is made from an asbestos containing material.

    It is not small ceiling tiles but a normal plaster type ceiling (by the looks of it).

    Also, there was no lagging in the attic when they moved in 10 years ago and they have had some put in. Does this lack of lagging mean that there is an increased likelihood that the plaster boards are made from asbestos insulating board?

    I have no photo I'm afraid I am just looking for general guidance on the types of ceiling related asbestos used in Irish homes in this time. I am sure it is not popcorn or textured in anyway so that can be ruled out.


    I would appreciate any and all help.
