Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007

Download

Under the old law, a company could only be convicted of manslaughter if a “directing mind” of the organisation (a senior individual whose actions embodied the company) was also guilty of the offence. In the past, prosecutions for corporate manslaughter failed because of the difficulties of finding individual managers legally responsible.
