The Tribunal found that repeated warnings about the dangerous condition of the tip had been ignored, and that colliery engineers at all levels had concentrated only on conditions underground. In one passage, the Report noted: We found that many witnesses … had been oblivious of what lay before their eyes. It did not enter their consciousness.
