Challenge:
To ensure that safety related information
(alerts, incidents, high consequence near miss
data) is readily available to the individuals who
need it.

TOCC
Propose that we re think role of TOCC and
Structures Committee.
TOCC has limited value.
Structures Committee has many Industry competitors
(unlike Metocean, Standards & Decommissioning) and
attendance has declined.
Need for means of addressing broader Engineering
