The Revitalising Health and
Safety Strategy Statement stated at Paragraph 140
that:
"The Government are concerned
at the relatively low level of prosecutions and
have asked the Health and Safety Commission and
Executive to consider how their existing prosecution
system can be strengthened, taking into account
the approaches of other regulatory bodies such as
the Environment Agency."
In June 2000, the HSC published
for consultation a proposed revised enforcement policy
statement.
