New statute for the Railway, Maritime and Aviation Technical Accident Investigation Authority replaces Chapter II of R.D. 623/2014

Royal Decree 141/2026 repeals Chapter II of R.D. 623/2014, along with previous regulations (R.D. 800/2011 and R.D. 389/1998), and amends Articles 2 and 12 of R.D. 253/2024. This change establishes a new organic statute for an independent technical investigation authority for railway, maritime, and aviation accidents, featuring a collegiate structure and new administrative functions (Art. 2, 12).

In 3 key points

  1. Repeals Chapter II of R.D. 623/2014 and other previous regulations (art. 1)
  2. Amends Articles 2 and 12 of R.D. 253/2024 (art. 3)
  3. Creates an independent authority with a collegiate structure to investigate transport accidents (art. 2)

How it affects those involved

Transport authorities (rail, maritime, and aviation) must adapt their investigation and incident management procedures to the new statute. Safety and auditing professionals must familiarise themselves with the new collegiate structure and functions. Transport advisors may need to update their reports and recommendations to align with the new legal framework.
