Minister for Industry and Commerce.
Sir,
The Court appointed by you to investigate the causes and circumstances of the accident which happened to Aircraft EI.-ACF on the 1st January last, having now completed its deliberations, I send you herewith the Report signed by myself and the Assessors.
I desire to record my appreciation of the very great assistance given by the Assessors, Captain Van den Honert, Commandant Swan and Commandant Teague.
Our work was very much eased and the public very much convenienced by the privilege of accommodation in the Courts of Justice.
Public Sittings were held at the Four Courts on 19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 26th, 27th, 28th, 29th, 30th of May, 1953, and 1st June 1953.
The Court also met in private for consideration and preparation of the Report, on 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 8th June 1953.
THe Court inspected a D.C.3 Aircraft at Dublin Airport on two occasions.
I wish to take this opportunity of expressing the indebtedness of the Court to its Registrar, Mr. Angelo Murphy, for his invaluable assistance throughout the Enquiry.
Your obedient servant,
(Sgd.) Thomas Teevan.
