I'd suggest whatever your scaffold designer specifies.
The distance of the cordon should be commensurate to the size of the scaffold - I'm not aware of any specific figures, but your scaffold designer should be able to help. Failing that, the cordon will depend on the site layout. You'll want it as far out as possible I'd imagine.

Remember and take into account the bounce or richochet of fallen objects - SGB have a great video presentation of such events.

The National Federation of Roofing Contractors (UK) may have specific guidance for you.

BS6187 gives exclusion distances around demolition to ensure that falling debris cannot reach personnel. We generally work on half the height of the building and then the actual barrier need only be sufficient to keep people out, say double clipped Heras fence.
