## Notice

The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) is the lead Department for the UK's product safety framework and is responsible for most product safety legislation in the UK. Civil explosives (CEs) legislation (ER 2014/1638 (as amended) forms part of BEIS's overall safety framework, however Explosives Regulations 2014 (ER2014) is led and owned by HSE in Great Britain (GB) and HSE is also the market surveillance and enforcing authority. As such HSE has responsibility for the designation of standards for civil explosives and the DWP Minister agreed to delegate decisions on standards to Director Level in HSE. To enable HSE to have the capability to meet the above requirements, the Buxton estate requires new specialist facilities and updates to certain existing buildings, equipment, and other areas. The aim of the project is to confirm the scope of the updates required to the equipment, facilities and test areas on the Buxton site and then to manage the design, construction and commissioning of the same facilities according to CDM and any other regulatory requirements. The Detonator Test Building, to which this PCI relates, forms one part of this overall strategy, and will be used by the HSE to test the safety of commercially available detonators. The Works are detailed in the Drawings, Specifications, Schedule of Works contained within the tender documents.
