Annex Standard:

  • Annex 13 - Rights and entitlement - 5.27
A State which has a special interest in an accident by virtue of fatalities or serious injuries to its citizens shall be entitled to appoint an expert who shall be entitled to:

a) visit the scene of the accident;

b) have access to the relevant factual information which is approved for public release by the State conducting the investigation and information on the progress of the investigation; and

c) receive a copy of the Final Report.

This will not preclude the State from also assisting in the identification of victims and in meetings with survivors from that State.
