The meeting is set for 10:00 am at the offices below.  The building is shared so you will need to report to the building reception & be issued passes.  There is a large car park on Sweet Street nearby, which sometimes can get full, but I would think on a Friday in early June should be ok.

I don’t have a particular set of specific issues.  The intention is to discuss the incident, the history at the lock, the investigation and its findings, the level of risk involved and whether more can reasonably be done to prevent a recurrence and reduce risks.

If you are intending to bring along any colleagues it would be useful to know as reception need to be informed.

Regards

Good evening

 

Thanks for your email. I can confirm that 5 June is convenient. I would be obliged if you would let me have a list of issues that you want to cover so that we are able to assist with these at the meeting.

 

I will provide the report you requested prior to 5th June. Please confirm what time the meeting will take place.

Good morning Chantelle

 

The HSE concerns team in our HQ have been liaising with me on the responses that the Canal & River Trust have provided to concerns raised.   As it stands I am not convinced that all that is reasonably practicable is being done to reduce risks and to prevent a recurrence of such an incident, which in unfavourable circumstances could prove fatal.  I would like to discuss the Trust’s investigation and proposals to prevent a recurrence at a meeting with, an HSE Specialist Structural Engineer at our Leeds office (address below).  Current availability for us is 2nd – 5th June.  I would appreciate if prior to the meeting you could send me a hard copy of the final investigation report in its entirety to the address below.

 

Regards
