So they failed to meet 5 targets. Which ones? Were they important?

The above really means nothing unless we know what the targets are.

Sorry. Should read Which were the 20 it did hit.
With inaccuracy like this I should be able to get a job at Test lane.

The targets they missed are only health and safety ones. Too many people died at ABP, not enough people had health and safety training, some health and safety policies not implemented. Its all in the report, maybe the Echo should have read it and been abit more critical.

Health and safety has always been a joke despite them saying otherwise. How do they stand on bullying?
