HSE to publish fatalities on the web
The HSE has announced that it will publish the names of people killed in workplace accidents on its website following a ruling by the Information Commissioner last year. The HSE had argued that providing the names of people killed at work would breach the European Convention on Human Rights, as the families could be adversely affected But in July 2008 the Commissioner rules in favour of the Centre for Corporate Accountability requiring the names to be published once the Coroner's inquest had been opened.
Names and details of fatalities are available at www.hse.gov.uk/foi/fatalities/in-year-names.htm

Slight recovery of output and orders falls short of expectations in Q4 - confidence concerns mount in 2024
22 February 2024
Performance in the UK's printing and printed packaging industry did improve in Q4, as far as output and orders are concerned. However, it didn't come close to what would historically be considered the seasonal norm, nor quite match the subdued expectations for Q4.
