As part of my plans to revitalise the BPA, I'm opening up a new division. We already have a SRD (Special Response Division) and a CCD (Commerce Control Division) but there's an area that, I believe, no police department in Sirius currently addresses.
Henceforth, I proclaim the establishment of the BPA Occupational Health and Safety Division.
Soon, your friendly BPA officers will be approaching you all throughout Bretonia to check that your cargo is safely stowed, your fuel is properly stored, you're not carrying any hazardous materials and you have none of those nasty dangerous weapons mounted to your ship that could hurt people and give them big owies and/or booboos. Any weapons will be confiscated, and a hefty fine will be issued to any pilot who flouts Occupational Health and Safety regulations (soon to be officially added to Bretonia's Legal Codex).
I also require every current member of the BPA to create an OH&S Division Hussar. Unarmed, naturally (see above re: owies, booboos). The tag will be, for example:
BPA)Avril.Foley[OHS
Compliance will be enforced upon all ships in Bretonian space, including mercenaries, trade vessels, pirates, invading Kusari/Gallic fleets, and officers of the Armed Forces.
Look out for OH&S Division ships in Bretonia soon!
I would apply but I'm too busy investing in a plant on Leeds to manufacture high visibility jackets, hard hats and work boots with steel toe caps. . . . . . .
