What? So more money will stop the collusion?
Give me a break! That's the biggest load of rot I've ever heard.
It took three years because it took that long to cover up. So those really responsible could get their ducks in a row. When the proposed report is sent to those that should have been held responsible for their comments and amendments such that any failings can be washed from the final report to save any embarrassment for the government agency or minister responsible. That's what takes three years.
The reason I suggest a maximum of 6 months is so any major occurrence is a "learning opportunity", not a history lesson.
I want my ATSB to be impartial, that is, unbiased, unprejudiced, neutral, non-partisan, non-discriminatory, dispassionate, objective, open-minded, equitable, even-handed, fair, fair-minded, just; without favouritism, free from discrimination, with no axe to grind, without fear or favour.
I want my ATSB to be properly resourced with sufficient qualified staff so that reports are released no later 6 months after the occurrence.
