Summary of the New CoR Law Changes from the Horses Mouth!

Featured in this post is a summary of the amended CoR Laws being enacted on 1 October 2018, as described by the Manager of CoR (at the time the video was recorded) Michael Crellin.

In another video Michael made this comment:

The executive officer will need to know what are our risk management processes? What are our safety systems? And critically, are they working? It’s a focus upon the business practises and the systems controls that are in place. That means that my investigators won’t need to have a substantive offence. There won’t need to be an incident or an event that suggests we should commence a COR investigation. We can simply go and have a look at the system and do one of two things. Assure ourselves that the system is functional and effective or detect that it’s not.  (Source: https://www.nhvr.gov.au)
