GAS SAFE REGISTER

On 8 September 2008, HSE awarded a 10 year contract to the Capita Group Plc to provide a new registration scheme for gas engineers from 1 April 2009.

The current scheme has been in place for more than 17 years. During this time the number of domestic gas related fatalities has fallen significantly.

However, a 2006 review of domestic gas safety[1] involving industry stakeholders (including gas engineers and their representatives) and consumer groups identified no room for complacency and a strong case for change. The HSE have listened to these views in developing a modernised scheme which is set to deliver improvements to gas safety and added value for consumers and gas engineers.
