The various inspectorate
services of the government should operate far more independently and
professionally. Their critical attitudes have declined. This is the result of
the fact that the inspectorates consider the businesses and institutions they
inspect as clients who should be served. There is now a generation of
inspectors in the Netherlands which is no longer trained properly. This was
said by Ben Ale, Professor of Security at the Technical University in Delft. He
mentioned that in the Rotterdam tank storage firm Odfjell, the storage tanks
have not been inspected for more than 30 years. This also means that the
relevant environmental body hasn’t undertaken any action there.
