CDM 2007 Regulations Update
The Health and Safety Executive has proposed changes to the CDM regulations which were planned to be placed before the HSE Board in December 2012. However, delays in preparing the draft regulations have resulted in the HSE being unable to attend their February board meeting and now the changes won’t be presented to the HSE Board for consideration until March 2013 at the very earliest.
Additionally, the 2014 review of the underpinning European Temporary Mobile and Construction Sites Directive will change to the Irish version of CDM introducing Domestic Clients in June 2013. The speculation surrounding the forthcoming UK government announcement regarding our involvement in Europe is becoming quite intriguing.
