Following our discussions with members and representations to the HSE we have managed to negotiate a much more objective version of the alert initially being proposed by the HSE, which makes it clear that this is much wider than a new homes issue. The alert may well still, however, generate some media interest for our industry, and whilst obviously we would not be able to deal with local media enquiries about specific developments, if your media managers wish to send journalists queries about the issue in general to HBF, our communications person’s details are below. For media queries - Steve Turner 0207 960 1606. steve.turner@hbf.co.uk
