A = min 300 mm but in line with first nose
B = don't understand
C = 865 mm to 1000 mm

Dont understand B as i think its not necessary measurement, as your rail on the stairs is normally lower (865 mm) it lines up differently with your landing (1000 mm)

Tah - went for 950

Handrail on stairs 865 above the nose of the tread.

hi are you wanting to know how far you can go along landing before handrail must be 1000mm above surface(transition from stair865/nose to 1000/landing balustrade?)If i umderstand you correctly its 500 mm.
