    Geoff, Can I pick you up on your comments about MDL’s Health & Safety policies. As you quite rightly point out, our customers should not be exposed to the dangers associated with fork lift trucks and then there is the additional hazard of falling from height if you were permitted to work on...

    Port Hamble (MDL Again) - £0.51/litre 29/04/2007

    Ok – Time to enter the ‘Dragons Den’ and not wishing to “be quiet on this one”, I can give an overview on our fuel policy. With the exception of two sites where we are tied to a local supplier due to restricted access for the fuel delivery, our fuel is supplied exclusively by Shell. Our view...

    Borrowing a ladder from MDL?

    DickB, Having read your original post about “Borrowing a Ladder”, you leave me no other choice than to reply publicly as both myself and my colleagues within MDL are extremely dismayed about what you have said. You clearly do not understand Health and Safety legislation. I am further appalled...

    2005 Marina charges
