Dear Mr Bradshaw
Please see the letter from the
Devon County Council H&S Chief, Margeret Bullock……
I draw your attention to the DCC H&S Policy which is
dated 2012 (see DCC website).
Any reputable public authority would update their Health & Safety policy
every year.
This letter is important because it proves the DCC lied through their teeth to HM Court ref the Dransfield Vexatious Case GIA/30,37/2011
because they were aware that their policy and procedures for pupil safety were
serious flawed if not criminally negligent.
For your information action and files
Yours etc
Alan M Dransfield
PS
I have recommended the Devon Cornwall Police should question
you ref you willful blind eye to DCC fraud and theft of public funds.
Best of luck with that.
PPS
Could you please advise me if I can submit a FOIA
request to my MP?

Dear
Colleagues
RE:
Statutory Inspections of Facilities,
Plant and Equipment
The
Health and Safety at Work Act (1974) requires
that employers
provide a safe
place
of work, plant and equipment. This duty
is extended by specific
regulatory
provisions,
which detail requirements
for regular inspection
and maintenance of
certain
items of facilities, plant and equipment. These items are regarded as
having
particular hazards associated with them.
During
recent visits to a variety of premises
across the council, it was identified
that
a number of statutory inspections have not been carried out in some premises
due
to some confusion over who is responsible for organising the necessary
inspections.
In some cases the inspections
had been carried out, but no records
were
held on the premises. To
assist those with premises responsibilities,
a list of key items that require statutory
inspections and maintenance, normally
carried outmby
an independent, competent
contractor, in addition to the usual
premises or user checks, is attached.
Establishments should identify which items on this
list are present in their
own facilities or premises. For each
item of statutory
inspection, the frequency
requirements is provided and indication
of whether it is the
service, the school,
the directorate, NPS South West or the Council Insurers who have the responsibility
for arranging the inspection. However,
in all cases and regardless of who
arranges these inspections, each inspection must be recorded and a copy retained
at each of the relevant premises.

If
any facilities, plant or equipment is no longer used, it will still
be required to be
inspected
unless it is made totally
unusable, e.g. isolated
from the mains, plugs removed,
etc and clearly labelled Do
Not Use.
Establishments are advised whereever
possible to dispose of obsolete equipment. Establishments
where DCC is not
the employer (e.g. Voluntary Aided, Foundation and
Trust schools) are advised to use the attached
sheet to check your current arrangements.Premises
arrangements for managing the statutory
inspections of facilities, plant and
equipment will be monitored as part of the
Health & Safety Management Reviews
carried out across the Council and
detailed information on all premises related
health and safety responsibilities
are provided on the Devon Health and Safety
Service pages onThe
Source or
on the CDROM provided
to schools. Other
sources of advice can also be obtained
from your relevant NPS BuildingOfficer,
the Councils Insurance Team on
01392
382292 or from
the
Devon Healthand
Safety Service on 01392 382027.
