I would concur. Too much of what is blamed on 'Elf and Safety' in the press is actually Insurance or risk aversion. The HSE do a damned fine job and they don't bring prosecutions very often.
I do wonder if evidence or findings in the inquest have led to this, although i didn't follow the case that closely.
