A safety case should be kept under review rather than updated only when the regulator requests it.
Changes to the building, new assessments, incidents, remedial works, deterioration in important controls or new information about risk may all affect the conclusions within the safety case.
A good safety case management system should therefore make it possible to identify changes, assess their significance and update the relevant risk arguments and evidence.
