What are the minimum h&s components/training needs for a scaffold company apart from:
All scaffolders suitably trained and competent.
I can not seem to find this information anywhere, must be some sort of list out there?

robin, There are codes of practice which make recommendations but, as you suspect, not compulsory, NASC: https://www.nasc.org.uk/product_code_of_practiceQuote:
The NASC Code of Practice was introduced in 2010 for System Scaffold. Since that time the programme has been advanced to include EN39 Tube, EN74 Fittings and BS2482 Timber Boards. 2013 will see the introduction of an audit programme for Aluminium Beams with Unit Transoms and Temporary Roofing Systems to follow in 2014.
The rationale behind the CoP audit was to introduce a level of compliance that all members should adhere to, with the audit covering Quality Systems & Procedures, Product Testing, Raw Material & Components and Process Control. Where appropriate relevant BS, EN & ISO Standards are utilised.
Audits are carried out by a third party consultancy company QSI Ltd at member company UK sites and in the majority of cases at manufacturing sites worldwide. Compliant products are listed on the NASC website. The audit is specific to new product entering the UK market.

With all due respect I advise that you get on board a professional as there is a lot of stuff needed noting that a scaffold is only 1 interface that scaffolders' have when they are at work
