@Gus Potter, thank you for this detailed post. I am curious about the agreement that your client was/is the PD. On my self-build, I am operating in that capacity, in the sense that I am coordinating, reading relevant Approved Documents, and asking the architects when I am not sure of something or for them to confirm my understanding. They (the architects) sometimes confer with our BCO. When the architects asked the BCO if they would be willing to accept me as the PD, they would not, because of the competency requirement. I don't have any training, just curiosity, research skills and determination. Have you found an argument for 'client as PD' that somehow passes/bypasses the competency requirement?
