Recommendations

Recommendations (the sheriff's words)

That was a defect in a system of working and requires urgent attention. In my view, some form of cross-checking in respect of the issue of lifesaving equipment would be appropriate to prevent the recurrence of the issue of the wrong equipment.

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.
