If having a new house built on private property with no public access is there a requirement for fencing to be placed around the site. The existing building is being demolished and rubble being left on site to fill in large crater.
Would the HSE need to be notified?
Principle Contractor is a small known builder who will have to su out some of the work.
Would he be required to supply RA & MS to the client who is having the house built.?
Would he also be required to provide an F10?
The occupants will be living on the site in a mobile home away from the building area.
Any help would be most appreciated, thanks.

The demolition works come under the CDM Regulations and the Client is required to appoint a competent and resourced Principal Contractor and Planning Supervisor for this part of the scope of works at least.
I would guess the time taken to build a new house would bring the new build scope of works under the Regs. also.
The Designer appointed by the Client should be able to advise the Client of his duties under the Regs.
With regard to segregation of the works (fencing),the HSE publication HS(G)151 "Protecting the Public - Your Next Move", gives good basic advice.
Trust the above is useful.

john,
the above message should have been prefixed by ...unless the Client is a domestic client (i.e. the work does not relate to their trade or business)....

John,
If as the previous response mentioned, the client is a domestic client and the contractor is not a developer then it is the responsibility of the contractor to inform the HSE via the F10, this is their only duties with regard to the CDM regs, the designer still holds their duties to have consideration for health and safety within their design.
