Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the theories and practice of how to control corporate behaviour through legal techniques. The principal theories examined are deterrence, economic rational acting, responsive regulation, and the findings of behavioural psychology. Leading examples of the various approaches are given in order to illustrate the models: private enforcement of law through litigation in the USA, public enforcement of competition law by the European Commission, and the recent reform of policies on public enforcement of regulatory law in the United Kingdom. Noting that behavioural psychology has as yet had only limited application in legal and regulatory theory, the book then analyses various European regulatory structures where behavioural techniques can be seen or could be applied. Sectors examined include financial services, civil aviation, pharmaceuticals, and workplace health & safety. Key findings are that 'enforcement' has to focus on identifying the causes of non-compliance, so as to be able to support improved performance, rather than be based on fear motivating complete compliance. Systems in which reporting is essential for safety only function with a no-blame culture. The book concludes by proposing an holistic model for maximising compliance within large organisations, combining public regulatory and criminal controls with internal corporate systems and external influences by stakeholders, held together by a unified core of ethical principles. Hence, the book proposes a new theory of ethical regulation.

Download or read book Maintaining and Improving Britain's Railway Stations written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2005-07-20 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Network Rail owns most of Britain's 2507 stations and is responsible for their structural repair and renewal. It also operates and manages 17 large stations, known as managed stations. It leases the remainder, known as franchised stations, to 22 Train Operating Companies (TOCs) responsible for station maintenance, cleaning and operations. The Strategic Rail Authority (SRA) sets minimum standards, including facilities and services required at franchised stations, monitors TOCs' compliance with requirements and helps fund stations' operation and improvement. In this report, NAO examines whether passengers are satisfied with station facilities and services and whether station requirements are being met, the barriers to station improvement and what is being done to overcome them. There has been a little improvement in passengers' satisfaction over recent years. National Passenger Survey data show that satisfaction increased from 59 per cent to 63 per cent between 1999 and 2005, but the greatest levels of dissatisfaction are with the more than 2000 small and medium-sized stations which are unstaffed, or staffed for only part of the day, and which have few facilities. But there is a gap between rising passenger expectations on the one hand, and value for money and what the government and the industry can afford to spend on the other. Funding constraints constitute the biggest barrier to further improvement. Having originally envisaged spending £225 million on new facilities at 980 stations in its Modern Facilities at Stations programme, the SRA shrank the programme to £25 million and 68 stations to match the amount of money the Department for Transport made available.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Safety of British Railways; Or Railway Accidents: How Caused and How Prevented The Author was led, a few months ago, by an article in a technical journal, to look into the causes of the railway accidents of thirty years or so ago and to compare them with those of the present day. The question of safety on British railways is one of great importance as well as of considerable interest, and this was in the Author's mind when he commenced investigations. We were then passing through anxious times in that direction as the annual report of the Board of Trade showed that the year 1906 was the worst since 1874 as to casualties to passengers in train accidents. The perusal of these pages will show that the accidents of a former generation were mostly due to a weakness of the Machine and not so much to errors of the Man. The Machine is now perfected, and these pages will, without doubt, force the reader to the conclusion that present day accidents are due to failures of the Man.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Command Paper sets out the Government's vision and policies for the railways. Applying to England and Wales, the Government seeks to work with the rail industry and others to secure significant reductions in the railway's cost base, while at the same time improving the railway for passengers and freight customers. The Government sees railway reform as delivering four objectives: (1) Securing value for the passenger and addressing concerns about rail fares; (2) Dealing with the fiscal deficit; (3) Supporting economic growth, through continued taxpayer investment for passengers and freight; (4) Delivering environmental goals, by reducing carbon emissions. The Command Paper also considers the finding and recommendations set out in Sir Roy McNulty's independent "Realising the Potential of GB Rail: Report of the Rail Value for Money Study" (available from the DfT here - http://www.dft.gov.uk/publications/realising-the-potential-of-gb-rail/). The publication is divided into six chapters: Chapter 1: Introduction; Chapter 2: A better deal for passengers; Chapter 3: A more strategic role for Government; Chapter 4: A more efficient industry; Chapter 5: Better information; Chapter 6: Implementing rail reform.
