I will be very brief. This language will make perfect sense to the witnesses. It contains a bit too much jargon for us, but we will have a go. The plan states:

In Ireland, the IAA provides Electronic Terrain And Obstacle Data, ETOD, for use by industry stakeholders, such as GPS and FMS database suppliers. The ETOD helps to eliminate database transfer errors in on-board TAWS [terrain awareness warning systems] equipment and thereby helps minimise [controlled flight into terrain] CFIT occurrences.

I assume that last term, controlled flight into terrain, means collisions. Do the witnesses accept that the IAA's obligations are set out in that section? Are those obligations being fulfilled? This is the matter in essence. I am referring to the authority's own text.
