Ship where more people died than Titanic due to extra lifeboats

A couple of years ago I heard a programme on Radio 4. I think it was about safety measures that actually make things worse. As part of the programme it discussed the laws that were introduced after the Titanic sank which required ships to carry additional lifeboats (regardless of how many they already had). The programme discussed a ship which sank due to the additional lifeboats where people died than on the Titanic.

I can't find anything online about this, but I know it was discussed oh the programme!

Any ideas??
