I love the child-like naivety of your suggestion Porter.

Who would you have preside over this investigation? You would never get a public prosecutor because successive governments have already admitted Mahon got it right and has apologised to the victim's families on every anniversary of the accident.
Next problem is what witnesses do you intend to subpoena for the collection of evidence? Most of the bona fide players have either passed away or are no longer interested. Anyway, Mahon had already included removing the word blame in his final report.
