Of course the aircrafts must be fully IFR-equipped, the pilots IFR-trained, with oxygen on board (just in case), and NVG-goggles as well…
Parachutes might help as well….just in case….
And floats-even if not flying over the ocean at all…
Ah-emersion suits!
What else?
What´s next?

It may have been nice to have given a reference, rather than conjecture....

this has to be a joke, right?
i've been flown many times in light singles and have never felt unsafe, surly this is a con to get people to buy new twins, maybe prop up airbus heli's sales.

Wise up will you!
The regulations that are being referred to in the piece are those which have been extant for almost 15 years. The quotation from Dominique Orbeque was very amusing:
The rules in question had been transposed to EASA OPS from Appendix 1 to JAR-OPS 3.005(d) - HEMS; and Subpart I - Performance Class 3.

Personally I hope this is true, because it may light the fire under the debate on the culture of finger pointing, arse covering, and aircraft grounding that the EU aviation and transport regulations have created and love to foster.
The only aircraft that the aviation authorities want to see is the ones that are on the ground. That way aviation is safe.

Either way, this is what happens when these fixed-wing dick§"$%& have a say on helicopter regulations. They should care about your own damn business, because every time one of their planes go down, we chopper pilots go out there to save their a$%es! Single or twin-engine.
