2045 3578 CEA anticipates new Cesar resource
Organisational and priority changes within the Metropolitan Police led to the suspension of the theft prevention activities of the Plant and Agricultural National Intelligence Unit (PANIU) earlier this year. The CEA (Construction Equipment Association) has confirmed that it is looking forward
to the formation of a new national police resource to co-ordinate the fight against plant theft and to complement the work of both the Cesar (Construction Equipment Security and Registration) scheme network and that of the Combined Industries Theft Solutions group (CITS). Rob Oliver, CEA Chief Executive, said, “The main donors providing funding for PANIU

came from the insurance industry. Consequent on the suspension of that unit, we are working closely with insurance representatives and key national policing leads with the objective of forming a new national police resource. This is providing us with the opportunity to ensure there is an alignment of the work of the police, the Cesar network, CITS and others dedicated to combating plant theft in all its forms.”

Unite launches silica register Self-Leveling Construction Lasers 130
The Unite trade union has launched an online register to allow workers who have been exposed to silica dust to log their exposure. This could assist them with potential future legal cases if they experience long-term health problems. Silica dust (respirable crystalline silica) is created when cutting, grinding, drilling or
polishing, natural substances such as rock, and is a major constituent in bricks, tiles, concrete and other building materials. Inhaling the dust over a long period can

cause silicosis, lung cancer, tuberculosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Unite says that, as symptoms can take many years to develop, making a register helps identify when and where workers were exposed. It is the employers’ responsibility to prevent workers from exposure, by using dust suppression measures or issuing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
