Not conspiracy to murder, but...
...some emerging news is, on face of it, in territory of misfeasance / misconduct in public office - which is both a criminal offence (ie, prosecutions) and a tort (getting sued)
Would not put it any higher than that, but some serious stuff https://twitter.com/guardian/status/1252572941080039429

Health and Safety prosecutions can be quite fact specific - so not easy to generalise
But in principle, any unsafe system is open to a H&S prosecution https://twitter.com/MissingWires/status/1252630041441325062

A grim topic to offer commentary on
Misconduct/misfeasance or H&S is usually straightforward to prove
Anything which is based on causation of actual harm (or worse) is far more difficult to prove beyond reasonable doubt
de Menezes prosecution was via H&S for this reason https://twitter.com/BForce77/status/1252631352069050369

This indicates any causation issue here
The failure to properly participate in a scheme may have been wrongful in political and even legal sense
But for manslaughter etc, they would need also to be clear line of causation to a death - evidentially very hard https://twitter.com/IanStev91870878/status/1252634993135890435
