The last NEBOSH Diploma question on CDM (albeit the 1994 version) was on the January 2006 examination paper. It asked candidates to: (a) outline the duties of designers under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 1994 (b) explain the designer's role in health and safety. The January 2006 examiners' report lists the designers' duties as being to: inform the client of client duties under the CDM Regulations and the requirements of the accompanying ACoP (this is still the case under CDM 2007); ensure the design considers the need to avoid foreseeable risks to construction workers and others affected, such as cleaners (still the case under CDM 2007 and the ACoP); combat at source risks to the health and safety of construction workers and others affected (still the case under CDM 2007 and the ACoP);give priority to control measures that protect all on site - not just individuals (still the case under CDM 2007 and the ACoP).
