Revocation of the Notification of Conventional Tower Crane Regulations 2010 - The Tower Crane Register

Following the public consultation in 2012, and the HSE Board decision to recommend to the Minister for Health and Safety proposals to revoke the Notification of Conventional Tower Crane Regulations 2010, the duty to register conventional tower cranes on construction sites will no longer be required and the associated tower crane register (the register) will no longer be in operation. 

The proposals have now been agreed by the Minister and the Statutory Instrument (SI) revoking the Regulations has now been made and laid in Parliament.  Subject to Parliamentary scrutiny, the revoking SI will come into force from 6 April 2013 and from that date there will no longer be a duty to notify tower cranes to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
