4 Conclusion to Part 1
63. Both
the companies themselves and the public sector bodies responsible
for the industry—Ofgem, the DTI and energywatch—have
worked hard to draw the correct lessons from the October 2002
storms and to implement appropriate changes to practice. We commend
in particular the work of the Network Resilience Working Group
in achieving a consensus on what needed to be done and driving
forward implementation. We conclude that the distribution companies
are now significantly better prepared to deal with the aftermath
of severe weather than they were in October 2002.
