Health and Safety Executive/Local Authority

Enforcement Liaison Committee (HELA) Circulars

Open Government Status: Open

HELA Local Authority Circulars (LACs) and PETroleum Enforcement Liaison circulars (PETELS) provide local authority (LA) health and safety enforcement officers with advice and guidance on enforcement management and technical matters. HELA circulars are issued in the interests of achieving consistent standards in health and safety enforcement between LAs, and between LAs and the Health and Safety Executive.

If you cannot find the LAC you need to refer to it may have been withdrawn because it has passed its review date - LAs and HSE may view archived LACs on HELex under Guidance and Procedures on the HSE extranet site (login required).
