AU - Kemp, Roger

N1 - This paper and the extended version submitted to the Department for Transport were the first to argue that the 1992 arrangements under which the Railway Inspectorate was transferred to the HSE were inappropriate and should be reversed. While not claiming more than a fraction of the credit, the 2005 Railways Act implemented this advice and moved the HMRI into the Office of Rail Regulation.
