Spot on.

It is my understanding that BOIs are not permitted to make recommendations or comments concerning political policy. In the same way that, under the GEMS suggestions scheme, anything relating to MoD policy or politics is automatically rejected. (I once submitted a suggestion that funding should be made available to routinely maintain safety and airworthiness, and should be applied retrospectively. I cited examples of unsafe aircraft and equipment where the root cause was withdrawal of funding. It was thrown out. Still got my copy).

If you look at the BOI reports on any of the incidents mentioned here, none of them go far enough.
