  1. Thanks Paul, The info is good but very generic. Would it not have been a good idea for the Association to have a team of Arb approved contractors go out and preform tasks and then you could observe whether they were possible or not. Also the advice seems to be very England based. DEFRA and PHE. What is the advice from SNH and the welsh and Irish equivalent. Cheers
  2. By conveying the response you are therefore endorsing it. It would be perhaps more helpful if the arb association could give clarity of specific tasks such as how to clean tools correctly, how often ?, after every use or start and finish of the day, should staff wear masks, what chemicals should be used, what should be done with waste materials. How you recommend rigging operations are carried out safely to prevent cross contamination, how gloves should be used properly. I’m sure most contractors now fully understand that it has been left to them to decide whether they should/can work safely. It would be more helpful then if the Arb Ass could provided better and more detailed guidance on how to do that.
