Devon County Council gave a pledge last year to lead an independently chaired local Public Inquiry into the beaching of the MSC Napoli in Lyme Bay. The Inquiry is supported by East Devon District and Dorset County Councils.

The purpose of the Inquiry was to hold public hearings and prepare a report on what lessons can be learned from the fate of the MSC Napoli and how best to protect our marine environment and coastal communities in the future.

The MSC Napoli Local Public Inquiry Committee, which was tasked by Devon County Council to examine the response to the MSC Napoli incident, has now concluded its investigations. The following report highlights the Committee's findings, and makes recommendations to help agencies better respond to similar emergencies in future.
