The ‘National Scheme’ replaces all Water Company Blue/green card schemes. The scheme covers all personnel working with drinking water, whether they are water company employees or contractors. All UK water companies are on board with the scheme including Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. This now includes self lay organisations working on new development sites. The new scheme is national with the same training and testing for the whole country.
