Thomas, No not quite that bad to be fair. Its a case of two things, namely emperors new clothes and never mind the engineering, feel the concept. Conceptually, it is great. I really mean that. However, the practical way it interprets the concepts is, in a number of respects severely flawed by over simplistic approach by the authors, who clearly thought it needed to have wee tables and every time you increase risk or decrease it you move up or down a table. Alas , the compensation you get or the increase in precautions you get dont always make any practical sense whatsoever. Then, they waffle about how you will have good management to compensate, but their Level 2 management is simply what you need to satisfy legislation, their level 3 management is illegal and their level 1 doesnt really add much that will reduce risk over and above level 2-it just looks neat and elegant to have these levels. Need I go on.............
