Lets hope the investigation and implementation of recommendations at least gives them that.
Remember these people are New Zealanders (of probably South African extraction), and so come from an environment where there has been a universal, compulsory no-fault accident compensation system since 1973, and under which it is impossible by law to sue for personal injury.
Kiwis are therefore unlikely to think of litigation in their situation, as they just can't sue in their home environment.
