The Carriage of Dangerous Goods Regulations can apply to any person or organisation that allows dangerous goods to be carried by road.

The DGSA has a legal obligation to carry out the following broad functions:
Dangerous Goods Safety Advisers (DGSA's) must be able to demonstrate that they have successfully completed appropriate training resulting in the award of a Vocational Training Certificate. In the UK this requires success in the appropriate Scottish Qualifications Authority examinations.
Many companies who should have a DGSA are operating without one. DFF can provide for your DGSA statutory requirements on an advisory basis, or we can provide training to prepare your own staff for the necessary Vocational Training Certificate examinations.
