PM assures accountability following independent inquiry into MV Barima tragedy

What this source establishes

The Chronicle reports Prime Minister Mark Phillips said in a radio interview on Wednesday 22 July that those responsible will be held accountable once an independent Commission of Inquiry completes its work, and that the inquiry will examine pre-departure events, adherence to operating procedures, passenger manifest discrepancies, cargo handling, emergency response and any regulatory breaches. He cautioned against drawing conclusions before investigators finish, and said placing some maritime staff on administrative leave was standard practice, not a finding of guilt. Credited to DPI.
