SAFETY CASES. Safety cases are an important part of goal-based safety regulation and corporate governance [30]. Explicit safety cases are required for military systems, the off-shore oil industry, rail transport and the nuclear industry. An early definition of a safety case [40] was “a documented body of evidence that provides a convincing and valid argument that a system is adequately safe for a given application in a given environment” Each domain has variants of definitions. For example, a nuclear safety case is defined by the HSE [41] as “…the totality of documented information and arguments which substantiates the safety of the plant, activity, operation or modification in question. It provides a written demonstration that relevant standards have been met and that risks have been reduced as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP).” In regulated sectors, the licensee is legally responsible for the safety case. Given the magnitude and complexity of the legislative and technical requirements that have to be met, safety cases have to be structured in a logical manner and be demonstrably adequate. Safety cases can be seen to support the following [42]: • Reasoning and argumentation. A safety case can be seen as an over-arching framework that allows us to argue whether the claims are substantiated by the evidence. The case might be mainly narrative, using prose to explain the connections between claims and evidence. However cases deal with highly technical subjects and hence they might use specialist notations from the particular disciplines concerned (e.g. from fluid mechanics, computer science). The case will then integrate a selection of technical analyses and other evidence using a formal or graphical notation to show whether the claims have been met; how the evidence is integrated; and the overall structure of the case and the thrust of the argument.
