If I pop the blue/red plastic thing out under the handle there's a small screw thing but it's neither slotted nor Phillips.

Hi there, help needed. I'm trying to replace the cartridge in this tap but can't work out how to undo the small screw on this. It doesn't seem to be slotted for a screwdriver. Is there a standard screw that fits all taps and what should I use to get it out. Cheers for any help. P.S. link below...
