ABTT Statement with regards to the withdrawal of the Code of Practice for the selection and use of temporary access equipment for working at height in theatres

31st Jul 2010

This follows the withdrawal of the Manufacturer's Instructions containing a section on moving an occupied Tallescope consequential upon actions by the HSE.

The Manufacturer's Instructions are reprinted in the ABTT Code of Practice.

Whilst believing the method contained in the CoP to be safe, the ABTT strongly recommends that an occupied Tallescope is not moved until this matter is resolved.
