Abstract
Twelve serious inadequacies of hazard-control policy in the United Kingdom as it relates to liquefied energy gases (LEGs) are identified in this paper. These inadequacies are discussed against a background of the hazard properties of liquefied energy gases and associated hazard incidents (actual and potential), the growing scale on which these substances are handled, and with reference to large-scale liquefied energy gas facilities currently being developed in Fife, Scotland. It is argued that the hazards posed far outweigh the safety measures practiced.
