CDM regulations revised for 2007
14 Dec 2006
On 6 April 2007 the CDM regulations are set to be tightened up, putting a greater responsibility on clients and designers for health and safety. A statement from the HSE concerning these new regulations declares:
“CDM 2007 will increase the focus on effective planning and management of construction projects, to improve risk management by ensuring responsibility is placed with those best placed to influence or manage it; reduce bureaucracy; and simplify and clarify the law for dutyholders, so they can easily understand what they (and other members of the construction project team) are required to do.”
