casa anyone?? what is their obligation?? in this

I have looked at the casa Annual Report.

Come on casa!!

For example, at Page 20:

Parliamentary engagement and accountability

During the reporting period, CASA welcomed the opportunity presented by the parliamentary committee process and its participation in the Senate Standing Committees on Rural and Regional Affairs and Transport Inquiry into Aviation Accident Investigations in October 2012 and February 2013 to provide our organisational experience and perspective to parliamentary representatives on the 2009 accident at Norfolk Island.

Although no lives were lost in the accident, there is no doubt that the experience has left a lasting legacy for those involved. In my role as Director
of Aviation Safety, the safety of all air travellers is paramount and the lessons learned from all accidents and incidents are given the highest priority when making further improvements to the system of aviation safety..
And from this, only the following words answer the Senator's:

.... on the 2009 accident at Norfolk Island.

Although no lives were lost in the accident, there is no doubt that the experience has left a lasting legacy for those involved.
Just 30 words explain away why the committe in part said :

The committee was understandably troubled by allegations that agencies whose role it is to protect and enhance aviation safety were acting in ways which could compromise that safety.

It therefore resolved to take all appropriate action to investigate these allegations in order to assure itself, the industry and the travelling public that processes currently in place in CASA and the ATSB are working effectively.
No answer Fort Fumble.
