Another red diesel point

February 24th

Dear Leigh,

I read with interest Tim Whiteman’s letter regarding "Red" diesel and the benefit to the Revenue of a piddling £1,000,000.00 pa.
see Tim Whitemans letter
Has anyone calculated the cost of investigating accidents at height, which could/will increase, if unsafe methods of access are used in an attempt to reduce costs...!

A single death on the road costs "£1,000,000.00 to clear up and investigate being Highways Agency figures. What is the cost of a death on a construction site(?), perhaps the HM Health & Safety Executive should be asked the question.

Food for thought.
