Guvnor please point out where I said that things should be 'brushed under the carpet'?
Now that you're making up quotes I know you're defeated.
My point is that it is right and proper to hold a thorough and objective investigation, to produce a report with findings and then to consider corrective actions.
What is not right is to foam at the mouth about safety records, quote banal statistics in support of your opinions and then come up with instant recommendations all before breakfast the day after the incident.
Your profile suggests you are a Chief Executive in this industry. I have to say I find this hard to believe.
