New Asbestos Regulations came into force on 6 April 2012.

The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
These new regulations completely replace the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2006, which have been revoked with effect from 6 April 2012. These new asbestos regulations have been introduced because the European Commission decided that the UK had not fully implemented the EU Directive on exposure to asbestos (Directive 2009/148/EC). The new regulations are very similar to the 2006 regulations but there are some changes.
"Today’s workplace has become heartless and soulless. Employees are seen as units of labour, automatons, functionaries, objects for achieving designated tasks, and as costs to be minimised."
