- The Chief Investigator, Transport Safety (the Chief Investigator) is the independent Government agency responsible for investigation of safety-related trends and incidents in the rail, bus and marine industries in the State of Victoria, Australia. The position was created as a statutory office by the Transport Integration Act 2010 and commenced on 1 July 2010. The investigator is one of three independent transport safety agencies in Australia along with the Australian Transport Safety Bureau, a Commonwealth agency, and the Office of the Transport Safety Investigations in New South Wales. The Chief Investigator, Transport Safety is one of two dedicated transport safety offices in Victoria, the other being the Director, Transport Safety. The Chief Investigator is responsible for no blame or just culture investigations and inquiries in the transport sector while the Director has responsibility for safety regulation and compliance. The Chief Investigator contributes to transport safety by independently investigating, analysing and openly reporting on transport safety matters. All investigations are "no blame": this means the emphasis is on understanding causes and trends and learning to improve future transport safety. The Chief Investigator is separate from other transport regulatory authorities such as the Director, Transport Safety (Transport Safety Victoria), WorkSafe (the Victorian WorkCover Authority) and State, Territory and Commonwealth regulators and investigators, including the Australian Transport Safety Bureau. The Chief Investigator is also independent of transport operators such as Metro Trains, V/Line, Yarra Trams and bus and shipping companies. The Chief Investigator reports to two Ministers: the Minister for Public Transport in respect of rail and bus matters and the Minister for Ports in respect of shipping and boating matters. However, independence is underscored by the fact that the Ministers have few powers over the Chief Investigator, the prime power being the capacity to require the Chief Investigator to conduct an investigation into a transport safety matter.
