Did you mean "fair accident Investigation Branch"?
Bernard Jenkin: ...was established. After the Paddington rail crash, we established the independent Rail Accident Investigation Board. Former Fire and Housing Minister Nick Raynsford, former chief investigator of the air accidents investigation branch Keith Conradi, a leading building control specialist and I made a submission to the inquiry recommending that there should be independent incident...
Lord Bellamy: ...the Secretary of State to announce his intentions within six months. This can be an extremely difficult matter in practice. Take Lockerbie, for example. It may well take more than six months for the Air Accidents Investigation Branch to work out what has happened. In the case of a terrorist attack, a security incident or an action by a hostile state, there may be all sorts of reasons why a...
Lord Berkeley: .... Noble Lords may well say, “We don’t need that because we have the accident investigation and inspectors”. Again, other sectors have this: there is the Rail Accident Investigation Branch, the Air Accidents Investigation Branch and the marine one. They all do a good job, and they are independent. Ministers told me at a meeting yesterday that they also have an independent advisory...
Lord Hampton: ...they have plans to form an independent crash investigation unit for bus safety incidents where serious injury or death has or might have occurred, based on the Rail Accident Investigation Branch, Air Accidents Investigation Branch, and Marine Accident Investigation Branch.
Lord Bellamy: .... Let us take an incident such as the Shoreham air disaster, where 11 people were killed. Leaving to one side the question of whether that was a major incident, in that example there was the Air Accidents Investigation Branch, a criminal case and an inquest. Do we really need yet another body investigating, demanding documents and imposing more costs on the whole system? The Government are...
Jesse Norman: The Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) provides remote terrain training to all its staff as part of its essential health and safety training to prepare it for operations at aircraft accidents in remote locations. The course is bespoke and designed specifically to address the mitigations of hazards that staff could experience when having to access and examine wreckage in remote...
Julian Knight: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how much the Air Accidents Investigation Branch spent on equality and diversity training in the 2022-23 financial year.
Tim Loughton: ...since the Farnborough air show crash in 1952, so that activity has an extraordinary safety record over those many years. An interim report on the crash was first produced in September 2015 by the air accidents investigation branch. A second report was produced in December 2015, and a third in March 2016. In January 2017, the Civil Aviation Authority accepted all the recommendations. In...
Philippa Whitford: ...sure the other nations in the UK will want to learn from it, so it is important that it is not simply drowned at birth and that we get it right at this stage. HSSIB is based on the principles of the air accidents investigation branch, and we on the prelegislative Committee felt that the most central and important part was the safe space protected materials. The main priority is learning...
Edward Argar: ..., clause 102(1)(a) gives HSSIB the powers to enter and inspect premises in England. They are similar powers to those held by other investigatory bodies in safety-critical industries, such as the air accidents investigation branch. To use a phrase that I have used far too many times in these debates with the hon. Member for Nottingham North, they could almost be described as a backstop for...
...and British Airline Pilots Association, which related to the disclosure of evidence obtained during the course of the investigation into the Shoreham air disaster, which was conducted by the air accidents investigation branch. In his judgment, Mr Justice Singh referred to what he described as “a serious and obvious ‘chilling effect’ which would tend to deter people from answering...
Sarah Jones: ...based on what is called the Norfolk ruling. The Norfolk ruling concerns the inquest into the deaths of four men killed in a helicopter crash in Norfolk in 2014. There was a dispute as to whether the Air Accidents Investigation Branch should reveal the contents of the black box. The judge added three paragraphs to the end of the ruling, saying: “Unless there is credible evidence that the...
Philippa Whitford: ...Staffs and so forth. We have talked a lot in recent years about learning, not blaming. What is your view on that part of the Bill? How do we protect what is given within the safe space, paralleling Air Accidents Investigation Branch, but give the public the confidence through Healthwatch that this is not stopping any other investigation happening now, and that taking that approach can get...
Philippa Whitford: Q Mr Conradi, you have talked about this coming from Air Accidents Investigation Branch, where the safe space is very tightly protected. That is very much as has been put forward. The key concern is the fact that coroners are listed in the Bill. The ombudsman is already lobbying and many of us are being lobbied to get access to safe space testimony. The Campaign for Freedom of Information is...
Baroness Randerson: To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the report by the Air Accidents Investigation Branch Report on the accident to Piper PA-46-310P Malibu, N264DB 22 nm north-north-west of Guernsey on 21 January 2019, published on 13 March, what assessment they have made of the additional checks required to ensure that pilots operating outside the Air Operations Centre structure have the...
Baroness Randerson: To ask Her Majesty's Government what action is being taken by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) to address urgently the findings of the Air Accidents Investigation Branch over the issue of maintaining accurate and up-to-date records relating to pilot and engineer licences, certificates and ratings issued by the CAA.
Baroness Vere of Norbiton: ...existing legislation under constant review, in order to maintain the UK's high standards of aviation safety. Cost-sharing was not applicable to the accident involving Emiliano Sala, although the Air Accidents Investigation Branch report refers to the practice in a more general context. American registered aircraft are subject to US cost-sharing rules which apply the ‘common purpose’...
Baroness Vere of Norbiton: ...GAA - General Aviation Alliance EASA - European Aviation Safety Agency EASA GA Task Force Member (EAS) GAAC - General Aviation Awareness Council UKAB - United Kingdom Airprox Board AAIB - Air Accidents Investigation Branch GBASF - General and Business Aviation Strategic Forum AOG - Airfield Operators Group GA Advocate BAAC - British Balloon and airship club UKFSC - UK Flight Safety...
Baroness Vere of Norbiton: My Lords, the Air Accidents Investigation Branch, or AAIB, works independently of the Department for Transport, and in accordance with annexe 13 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation. The sole objective of the AAIB investigation is the prevention of future accidents and incidents. In this case, once a body was found, the AAIB prioritised its recovery; it was only later identified...
Paul Maynard: ...admit that something has gone wrong and seek to learn some lessons from it without feeling themselves to be placed in personal professional jeopardy. The right hon. Gentleman will be aware that the air accidents investigation branch routinely publishes reports. A further consideration in this instance is that the relevant information came through two whistleblower disclosures. It is...
