Recommendations
Recommendations (the sheriff's words)I would expect that the local authority and the police would wish to review the issue of signage as a matter of good practice following a fatal accident on a road within their area and suggest that the Crown should share this determination with them to that end.
Under section 28 of the 2016 Act, each recipient of a recommendation must respond within 8 weeks. The 8-week window is counted from the publication date. See how we track responses.
