These would require the 'responsible person' identified in RIDDOR to permit safety and employee safety representatives to take part in the investigation, to keep a record of it, and to inform anyone who has carried out a risk assessment of the activity concerned of the results, and would empower HSE inspectors and local authority officers to direct how the investigation is carried out.
