Titanic Inquiry (British)

The Titanic Inquiry (British) was an official investigation into the sinking of the RMS Titanic in 1912. Led by British officials, it examined the circumstances surrounding the disaster, including ship design, safety procedures, and responses to the incident. The inquiry aimed to determine why the ship struck an iceberg and why so many lives were lost, leading to recommendations for improved maritime safety laws and practices. It involved hearings where witnesses, including survivors and experts, provided testimonies to clarify responsibilities and identify failures to prevent future maritime tragedies.
