For over 15yrs i  have complied with the WHAR.....it has not changed or been amended yet we have had an industry storm in a tea cup......how did i do it?.......by reading the WAHR(2005).....

 

A rope access or positioning technique shall be used only if—
(a) it involves a system comprising at least two separately anchored lines, of which one (“the working line”) is used as a means of access, egress and support and the other is the safety line; 

 

AND THEN.....

 

3.The system may comprise a single rope where—
(a) a risk assessment has demonstrated that the use of a second line would entail higher risk to persons; and
(b) appropriate measures have been taken to ensure safety.

 

Nothing has changed except the rhetoric......it's not hard to work out how to exercise compliance and common sense 👍
