Abstract

About ten years have passed since the rules regarding establishing the Inquiry Counsels Association in the Act on the Investigation of and Inquiry into Marine Accidents were founded in 1999. In recent years, we expect to do the inquiry aid of a person involved in a marine accident, when the government enacted new regimes to better protect the rights of social minorities. But despite such rules regarding establishing the Inquiry Counsels Association, the government did nothing to found the Association for the last ten years. Especially, it is necessary a pivotal figure connecting to a similar work boundary, because persons qualified for an inquiry counsel are various. The authors think that the establishment of the Inquiry Counsels Association plays key part in resolving these problems. Therefore this study focused on the establishment of the Inquiry Counsels Association.
