Recommendation 76: Immediate analysis without waiting for legislation
From The Public Inquiry into the Piper Alpha Disaster, published 12 November 1990.
Recommendation
The regulatory body should ask operators which have not already done so to undertake an evacuation, escape and rescue analysis forthwith, without waiting for legislation. The timetable for completion of this analysis should be agreed between the regulatory body and the industry but should not exceed a total of 12 months, and that only for operators of a large number of installations (para 20.9).
