The decision of the Lord Advocate's decision to hold a fatal accident inquiry into two deaths on Shell's Brent Bravo platform in 2003 has received widespread support. The Lord Advocate, Scotland?s senior law officer, said it would be in the 'wider public interest' for an inquiry into the deaths of Keith Moncrieff and Sean McCue, overturning an earlier decision. The men were killed on the North Sea platform in September 2003. Shell was subsequently fined ?900,000, with the sheriff who heard the case saying the company was guilty of a 'substantial catalogue of errors'. The original decision not to hold a fatal accident inquiry was made last month by the procurator fiscal in Aberdeen. In March 2003, just months ahead of the tragedy, unions submitted a formal complaint to the Health and Safety Executive, detailed safety concerns about Shell's plans to reorganise in the North Sea. |
