150 Key Performance Indicators Effectiveness Indicator: Number of serious rail accidents per million train kilometres Through administration of the Rail Safety Act 1998 (the Act), the Department is responsible for promoting the safety of the rail transport system. In this regulatory scheme, where railway managers are accountable for rail safety, the Department: • Accredits railway owners and operators to construct, operate and maintain railways where they have met requirements in the Act including: • demonstrating the competence and capacity to meet the requirements of Australian Standard AS4292 Railway Safety Management, Part 1: General and Interstate requirements; • having a comprehensive safety management plan that identifies significant potential safety risks; and • an appropriate system to address those risks. • Monitors performance of accredited railways to ensure they are complying with the terms of their accreditation and their approved safety management system and to achieve continuous development and improvement in railway safety. A ‘serious’ rail accident is one consistent with a Category A ‘notifiable occurrence’ as described in the Rail Safety Regulations 1999, namely: • An accident or incident involving the death of a person. • An accident or incident involving serious personal injury to a person (including a passenger, other member of the public, railway employee or trespasser) that results in admission to hospital. • A derailment of a train or rolling stock on a running line. Number of serious rail accidents per million train kilometres. 2005-06 Actual 2006-07 Actual 2007-08 Actual • A collision, including: • A collision between trains, other rolling stock, vehicles or obstructions or buffer stops on running lines (including a collision as a result of a vehicle loading irregularity or an unsecured door); and • A collision involving a train with either a road vehicle or a person at a level crossing, including a pedestrian crossing. • A fire affecting rail infrastructure or rolling stock that endangers or could endanger the safe operation of a railway. • An explosion affecting rail infrastructure or rolling stock. A train kilometre is the distance travelled by a train over one kilometre of track. The indicator is calculated by dividing the total number of Category A occurrences by the total number of train kilometres travelled (expressed in millions) managed by accredited operators in Western Australia. A reduction in the number of occurrences or a continuance of a zero return would indicate that the safety outcome is being met on rail transport and gives users reasonable confidence that the rail system they use is safe. The result is economic growth and development through the promotion of rail as a safe passenger and freight carrier connecting commuters and goods to the desired destination for business or personal purposes. Social and economic benefits are also accrued through avoiding the high costs associated with rail accidents. 2008-09 Target 2008-09 Actual 3.99 3.36 4.23 4.00 3.90 Reasons for Significant Variance
Effectiveness Indicator: Registered recreational vessels involved in an incident (accident) on the water Western Australia’s temperate climate and unique marine environment entice an estimated 250,000 people to make recreational use of the State’s waterways each year. The Department takes a lead role in ensuring the safety of the State’s mariners through: • setting standards for recreational vessels and registering only those that meet legislative requirements; • requiring recreational mariners to meet basic safety competencies through the Recreational Skipper’s Tickets (compulsory from 1 April 2008); • maintaining marine charts and signs to promote safe navigation and warn of hazards; • responding to oil spills and other pollutants; • placing and maintaining navigational aids (NAVAIDS); and • educating and informing mariners on marine safety matters. Under the Navigable Waters Regulations 1958, all vessels that have a motor or have the capacity to have a motor fitted, must be registered to operate on navigable waters in WA. In addition, it is a requirement under the Western Australian Marine Act 1982 for people to report any accident or incident that results in serious injury or death, or the vessel being damaged enough to make it unseaworthy or unsafe. The data for this indicator is sourced from the Department’s recreational vessel registration and the marine incidents database and is calculated by dividing the number of incidents by the number of registered recreational vessels (expressed as a percentage). A reduction in the percentage of registered recreational vessels experiencing incidents would indicate that the safety outcome is being improved in relation to recreational boating. Registered recreational vessels involved in an incident (accident) on the water. 2005-06 Actual 2006-07 Actual 2007-08 Actual 2008-09 Target 2008-09 Actual 0.07% 0.1% 0.09% 0.1% 0.09% Key Performance Indicators Reasons for Significant Variance 151
