Article Abstract:
The introduction of Construction (Design & Management) Regulations 1994 has led to confusion, with complaints that the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has introduced a layer of bureaucracy which adds costs to the industry, and has not made it clear who should be responsible for what. The planning supervisor is a new role, and architects and consultants are suggesting they would be ideal candidates for the job.
