The revised document is now available. I am sure that as part of the Loftsted review the plan was to simplify and keep new ACoPs to a max of 32 pages. This one is 60 pages, the original was about 50!

Thanks Alistair but...................

I followed that through, the download PDF is the 2005 edition - even though the description that has the download button on it refers to the 2013 edn.

Confused !!

Maybe I'll give HSE a few days for the reality to catch up with the hype

If you take out all the introduction pages and the appendices and references the actual ACOP is only 35 pages long!

Walker - when I use the link, I get to the 2013 edition - strange?

Phillips - The HSE press release gives a bit of an overview of the changes -

The press release for the changes is vague - not much help really. Would be good to have a summary of the changes.

That is there have been any changes - on a quick flip through looks like a re-write and tidy up to me without changing much of anything.
