ABSTRACT
When an accident occurs on the board’s railways, there are three reports which are made:
1 On the day of the accident a brief report of the accident is made to the Railway Inspectorate.
2 Soon afterwards a joint internal report is prepared incorporating statements of witnesses. This too is sent to the Railway Inspectorate. Preparation of this report, it appears, is a matter of practice: it is not required by statute or statutory regulation.
