GERT8250 Iss 2

This document defines requirements for recording, analysing and reporting safety-related defects on rail vehicles, their components, systems, subsystems and related documentation. It also defines requirements for taking action following receipt of a national incident report (NIR).

GERT8250 was reviewed in accordance with the final report of the European Commission's Task Force on National Safety Rules (NSRs). The review concluded it duplicated European legislation, and could not be retained as a NSR nor as a Railway Group Standard. Its requirements remain valid and have been incorporated in RIS-8250-RST Iss 1.
