The Occupational Safety and Health Agency (OSHA) says valid complaints including the NiQuan case and fatal accident at Paria Fuel Trading Company Ltd, were filed within the statutory time frames, and remain active before the court.

In a release on September 26, OSHA said it has consistently acted within the law to safeguard prosecutions.

It was responding to statements arising out of a recent Privy Council ruling which clarified that safety and health prosecutions must be brought within six months, not two years.
