I move amendment No. 7:
In page 10, between lines 8 and 9, to insert the following: “(a) staff should be qualified master mariners, ship surveyors and/or marine engineers and their competencies should include marine engineering, naval architecture and seagoing experience;
(b) appointment of staff should not be at the sole discretion of the Chief Investigator;
(c) necessary staff qualifications should be outlined in a protocol between the Minister and the MAIU.”.
