JobAndKnock brings up a good point about removing the old fibre glass. Doing this is going to cause far more disruption or risk to health also with loose fibres going everywhere compared to just over laying it with something else. If this is a single project and you think the fibre glass is not safe then treat it like asbestos and don't disturb it and you will have no problems. Either way you need full PPE to overlay it with something of your choice or full PPE to remove it with the added problem of sufficient bagging, taking through the property, transporting and disposal. And once its gone what about any environmental concerns or to the workers now handling it at the tip? Even if you do remove the old stuff what about all the stray fibres that are left behind, in the air, stuck to the rafters etc... or will you hoover them up? again possible risk then of blowing more fibres everywhere and contaminating an appliance that now needs some safe disposal along with its contents.
A lot of things are deemed safe until some evidence surfaces proving otherwise which might not be till many years later, which might be too late to those already exposed. Again PPE is a must.
