Could someone point out to me where safety critical hours are mandated for NR employees? I know they stem from the Clapham accident and Lord Hidden's report but the report is a recommendation and not a requirement.
Thanks in advance.

Used to be Engineer's Handbook EH C200 but think gone elsewhere now.
I think it was actually put into law via the Railway Safety Critical Work Regulations (not sure title is 100% correct) but I think that this got superceded at the same time that ROTS migrated into ROGS so it MIGHT be in there so that is the first place I'd start looking.
Probably not exactly the actual limits that you want but see:
