Safety digest 03/2022: Balderton

Safety digests are a way of quickly sharing important safety messages when we have decided not to undertake a full investigation for any of the following reasons:

  • the safety learning has already been covered by a previous recommendation or will be addressed by an ongoing investigation

  • the safety learning mainly relates to compliance with existing rules, procedures or standards
