The Clapham Inquiry Report is especially relevant for BR as the company was the main subject of this report. The recommendations emphasized the importance of not just setting targets but achieving them and auditing them (Hidden 1989, paras. 13.2,13.16,13.53) and the sheer volume of recommendations in the report led to the development of a methodology to prioritize using cost-benefit and risk assessment schemes ...
