Conclusions<br />

• Insufficient data for realistic use in QRA.<br />

• <strong>The</strong> listed <strong>incident</strong>s are mostly in UK <strong>and</strong> USA,<br />

with a few in Europe. Whole world numbers will<br />

be higher.<br />

• <strong>The</strong> listed <strong>incident</strong>s are mostly those that were<br />

significant <strong>and</strong> worthy of report. Whole world<br />

numbers including less significant <strong>incident</strong>s <strong>and</strong><br />

near misses will be far higher.<br />

• <strong>The</strong> number of reported <strong>incident</strong>s is far higher<br />

than had been known. <strong>The</strong> hazard is very real <strong>and</strong><br />

must be taken into account in risk assessments<br />

<strong>and</strong> mitigation.
