As you are aware, an international marine casualty investigation expert was appointed to conduct a review of the current organisational structures underpinning marine casualty investigation in Ireland in the context of national, EU and international obligations.

The purpose of this review is to assess the current organisational structures for marine casualty investigation in Ireland and set out in a report, to me, as Minister for Transport, any recommendations, including in relation to change, to achieve the most appropriate and effective marine casualty investigation structures for Ireland, taking into account Ireland’s national, EU and international obligations.

I am expecting to receive the report of this review in the coming weeks and will give the matter further consideration then.
