Regarding Deputy Murphy's question, the aircraft accident investigation insurance policy was first taken out in 1993. It indemnifies the Minister and the air accident investigation unit's costs incurred by the Department in the investigation of major commercial transport aircraft accidents, including the costs of recovery, package and storage of wreckage but excluding the costs associated with the search and rescue of aircraft.
