Notes 
 
This electronic copy (Version 1.0 October 2003) of the Report of the 
Commission of Inquiry into Safety and Health in the Mining Industry 
Volume 1  (1995) has been prepared from a photocopy of the original report. 
The text was captured with a flat bed scanner (HP OfficeJet G85) and Optical 
Character Recognition Software (OmniPage Pro 12). The captured text was 
proofread in printed form and via text to speech. The file was exported to 
Microsoft Word 2002 for text and layout editing and then published as an Adobe 
PDF file. 
 
Care was taken to ensure that the text in this PDF file is an exact reproduction 
of the text in the original Commission report (some spelling errors have been 
corrected).  
 
The author is grateful to the DME for arranging proofreading of the electronic 
copy.
