The vote took place at the Annual General assembly Meeting held in Cologne on last Friday.

The Union of European Scaffolding Companies (UEG) represents the interests of the scaffolding across Europe. It was founded on October 25, 2008, with NASC joining in 2009 represented by Robin James and Dave Mosley.

Other members are national scaffolding associations from Germany, Netherlands, Poland, Switzerland, Norway, Finland, Sweden, France and Luxembourg, with the UEG staff and board currently in on-going discussion with several other national federations.

UEG also has a range of producers, manufacturers and industry experts as associate members who bring their support and knowledge, representing the wider group best interests via their roles on several Eurpoean Standard setting bodies.

Dave Mosley said: "I am very proud to have been appointed as Vice President of UEG and would like to thank the members for voting for me.

"NASC has been involved with the federation almost from the beginning, it is essential that our voice is heard during the discussions that take place in Europe, as they could have serious consequences upon standards regarding materials, labour, training and other aspects of the scaffolding industry back in the UK.

"Over the years, we have met some incredibly knowledgeable and experienced industry representatives via UEG and made some great friends and allies. Not every member will have the same opinion on a particular subject but through discussion we can usually reach a consensus, which will help to move us collectively in the right direction."

Dave has attended regular meetings and taken part in several working groups.

There are several working parties looking to raise standards and set minimum requirements for the European sector.

Its members are national scaffolding associations from Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Poland, Switzerland, Norway, Finland, Sweden, France and Luxembourg. They are currently in discussion with several other national federations including.
