Refer to BS EN 365. Also, see EN 353-1 (but check first HSE's Press Release and Warning):

http://www.hse.gov.uk/press/2004/e04074.htm

Members of the 'Height Access Safety Group' (http://www.hasg.org.uk/members.htm) or 'Work at Height Safety Association' (http://www.wahsa.org.uk/) may also be able to help.
