Rank: Super forum user		It should have absolutely no effect at all on the PRINCIPAL Contractor. The CPP is his document and the quality of it will be affected by the quality of the pre construction information. But I do hope we now end the farce of CPPs being rejected because they are not structured as many CDMCs used to insist. Bob

Rank: Super forum user		Having appointed the PC and awarded the contract can the client now say the PC is not competent to produce the CPP? At least we will not having the CDMC creating hoops before he advises the client.

Rank: Super forum user		Stedman Well aware of this and regard it as the very worst part of the changes. I was talking in a much broader context not specifically the requirements of the regulations. B0B

There must be an awful lot of coffee in the new Regs then ?
