As well as his contained-use expertise, Paul has a strong reputation in the effective management of waterborne infections, in particular Legionella and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Paul has acted as expert witness in a number of legal cases, and was a key contributor in the review of the current Approved Code of Practice (L8) and its associated technical guidance (HSG274).
