1C Wobbling walls: a civil and criminal case against Basildon Council

Following the collapse of a brick wall and the resulting injuries to a 6 year old child, Basildon Borough Council face prosecution by the Health and Safety Executive and a substantial fine.  This incident has changed the way the Basildon team think about any potentially dangerous structure.  Not just walls!

What is your organisation doing to prevent this happening in your area?  And can you afford the financial and reputational risk?
