Thanks for the responses everyone.Eggy-absolutely!Surely the whole point of a risk assesment is to assess.There is plenty of dialogue when landowners/farmers are assessed prior to allocation of compensation when big linear things run through their land.The minutae of crop regimes and timings would surely enter the frames of reference.Of course I accept that:
1. the farmer may have been watering (bit unlikely-rained a lot)
2.My colleagues and I should have left the site and,
3. I should have addressed the farmer direct.
My main bone of contention is the response of the HS bod.I also asked if we could have a copy of the risk assessment and that`s still forthcoming.....allegedly
..knowledge without action is insanity and action without knowledge is vanity..(imam ghazali,ayyuhal-walad)
