Download or read book Project CONTEST written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Home Affairs Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2009-07-07 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the ninth report of the Home Affairs Committee (HCP 212, session 2008-09, ISBN 9780215539731) and examines Project CONTEST, the Government's counter-terrorism strategy. Project CONTEST was first developed in 2003 as a response to the emerging terrorist threat in the aftermath of the attacks in New York and Washington DC, in September 2001. A revised version of CONTEST was published on 24th March 2009. CONTEST has four strands: Pursue, Prevent, Protect and Prepare, and responsibility for CONTEST lies with the Office for Security and Counter Terrorism (OSCT), part of the Home Office. The Committee commends the dedication and professionalism of the staff and approves of the more open nature in explaining CONTEST to the public. The Committee believes though that the Government could go further by outlining more of the sucesses of the counter-terrorism operations. However, the Transport for London network remains vulnerable to terrorism, as well as the 2012 Olympics, with the Committee seeing a safe and secure Games as a litmus test for the Government's counter-terrorism strategy.

Offering many detailed technical illustrations and examples of good practice, the provisions of this code cover all aspects of port work where goods or passengers are loaded or unloaded to or from ships. It is not limited to international trade but applies equally to domestic operations, including those on inland waterways. New topics are: traffic and vehicular movements of all types; activities on shore and on ship; amended levels of lighting provision; personal protective equipment; ergonomics; provisions for disabled persons; and the specific handling of certain cargoes, for example logs, scrap metal and dangerous goods.
