CLAR-11.25 Response Historic

Publish clear guidelines defining roles of MAIB and Department

Recommendation

In these circumstances I recommend that clear guidelines be laid down setting out precisely the role of the MAIB on the one hand and the role of the Department on the other. Such guidelines should be published so that the public may know the demarcation line between the Department and the MAIB and have confidence in the MAIB in the future.
