Extend steam boiler modification regulations to hazardous material pressure systems
Flixborough Inquiry · Flixborough Inquiry — Final Report · Issued 11 April 1975
Source — verbatim from the inquiry
●Inquiry recommendation
That existing regulations relating to modifications of steam boilers which do not apply to pressure systems containing hazardous materials should be extended so as to apply to such systems. In framing such regulations consideration will no doubt be given to the question whether the inherent nature of the material requires greater control than applies in the case of steam boilers.

How this page is built
Source and Response are verbatim from primary documents. The Evidence trail records published activity since — written statements, consultation outcomes, inspection findings, parliamentary references. The Index does not paraphrase or characterise intent; it tracks what has been published. Where the evidence is the absence of action (a missed deadline, a slipped timetable), that absence is documented from primary sources rather than inferred.
This recommendation's data is verified periodically against primary sources. The Index is monitored for staleness weekly.
