    1. The current focus is on the firefighting and search and rescue operation. In due course a full marine casualty investigation report should be submitted to the International Maritime Organization.
    2. It's too far out for us to see – about 10 miles [16km] – but we have seen the vessels bringing them in.
    3. It seems a mystery, really, because all the vessels now have very highly sophisticated technical equipment to plot courses and to look at any obstacles or anything they've got to avoid.
    4. It's difficult to actually suggest what went on, other than the fact it should never have happened.
    5. The incident remains ongoing and an assessment of the likely counter pollution response required is being enacted.
