I suspect not, a charge of corporate manslaughter takes a lot of justification and proof of wilful neglect of duty.
My understanding is that the Continental corporate body has been found guilty of a form of manslaughter under French law, not certain how this would equate to a manslaughter charge of some form under UK law.
Are Continental's H&S management procedures with regards to maintenance and inspection activities in the public domain as a result of the court case? Would these be examined rigorously under French law?
