Hi Dan
Mayb we are just lucky over here our Health & Safety Executive have sucessfully prosecuted firms that flout the law on safety issues have just read that firm has been fined £133,000 for causing a fatal accident on loading dock. New legislation that came to pass is our new Health & Safety Offences act 2008 which raises the fine for an employee(yes employee) to same amount as employer £20,000 or 12 months prison sentence or both for flouting the Heath & Safety Laws. Mayb your Gov should have consultations with our HSE. But pigs will fly and then the price of bacon will go up first.
