RAIL TRANSPORT: DRAFT SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM DETERMINATION OUT FOR COMMENT
- 05 April 2024
- Transport
- SA Legal Academy
The Railway Safety Regulator has called for input by 3 June 2024 on proposals for a new set of safety management system requirements to be met by railway operators intending to apply for, maintain or renew a railway safety permit. Although this is not overtly stated, once finalised and in force the determination seems likely to replace one issued in May 2018.
According to the document’s executive summary, the draft determination’s intention is to:
- ‘support, through practical advice, the design, implementation, and delivery of a structured and organisation-wide railway safety management system’
- with that in mind, to provide a user-friendly ‘tool’ for railway operators, and
- to ‘facilitate’ compliance with all legal requirements.
Meanwhile, the regulator has gazetted a ‘common’, ‘harmonised’ approach to risk evaluation and assessment as an addendum to the existing determination.
