Good question, action required but we are stuck with the quaint notion that whole of the ATSB body should be completely independent. Of course the investigations should be unbiased and not subject to outside influence. Accident investigation, like justice, should be impartial and seen to be impartial.

It’s no accident that according to the ABS the inhabitants of Canberra and Queanbeyan live on incomes 40% higher than the rest of us.
No Government instrumentality should be immune from some level of Parliamentary control of its overall performance.
The rush away from Departmental control (the Westminster tradition of responsible government) once again proving to be a mistake.
