I have created a backup of every incident case study from The chemical safety board. Next step will be extracting all the recommendations to the master database. You can browse for them www.inquestsandinquiries.com/inquiries by just selecting the CSB tag and pressing apply. Phew!

I’ve a week off from my main job so hope to make some progress on the inquiries website update. The two big changes coming will be a bit less flash and a bit more simplicity on the landing page and the recommendations page is just getting a full refresh. I’m trying to improve the search too

Packed day, but nice highlight talking to a NILO CPD day about Inquiries (with a little AI razzmatazz). I need to stop thinking I can fit a million thoughts in to 40 mins! Always happy to chat to people about this and introduce you to what some of the tools can do, and how to get the most from them.

Deeply tragic about how families were treated and very similar to the challenges of the families whose loved ones were tested due to coal mining.

A little more work on the site. Tonight, I've added a lot to the Aberfan page (podcasts, videos etc.). https://buff.ly/3WLvsFo I find Aberfan a really tough inquiry to read. A horrendous example of failing to protect people from known risks.
