A post to anyone who can advise on the following, done the CDM update and still as clear as mud.....a large construction site has a main contractor with its own CDM C doing lots of its own work but has lots of other third party companies and contractors working for them, who submitts the F10? the individual companies CDM C as one of thier own requirements or only the main contractor CDM C??
Thanks

There can only be one Principal Contractor and one CDM-C.

The CDM-C is appointed by the Client, it is his responsibility to submit the F10.

I'm sad that the update was so bad but unfortunately there are some around that are more concerned with purely outlining the legislation rather than looking at the effects.

As stated the CDM C is responsible for making the notification and is formally employed by the client as adviser. My current fear is that contractors are compromising the independence of the role by utlising the active construction staff to fulfill the duties and functions. The role needs to be independent of such control and proper information barriers need to be in place otherwise how can the CDMC formally advise the client?

just wanted to point out that the CDM-C can be an organisation, not just an individual. Hope that doesnt muddy the waters too much.
If it is a company then I would suggest a single point of contact within that company to coordinate the coordinators duties.

Better still the CDMC should rarely be an individual!! Which is the intent of the regulations and guidance.
