under regulations 10 and 12(1) and (2) (which relate respectively to monitoring and information, training, etc.) shall not extend to persons who are not his employees, unless those persons are on the premises where the work is being carried on.

These Regulations shall apply to a self-employed person as they apply to an employer and an employee and as if that self-employed person were both an employer and employee, except that regulations 10 and 11 shall not apply to a self-employed person.
