In discusson somebody pointed out that the client has to sign form F10 – the form which has to be submitted to the Health and Safety Executive. This is true but but only to signify that they are aware of their duties under CDM. Under Reg. 21(1) It is the CDM co-ordinator who has the duty to submit the F10 (the form as such is not necessary provided the information required by the form is provided) ‘as soon as possible after their appointment’ – further information, such as the details of the Principal Contractor, if not known at the time have to be submitted in due course.
