The Netherlands does not intend to publish the second preliminary report on the crash of the Malaysian Air Boeing 777 before the final results of the almost year-long investigation have been made public, Dutch Security Council spokeswoman Sara Vernooij told RIA Novosti on Friday.
She had earlier said that the final report was expected to be published in October.
“As far as I know, there will be no other preliminary report,” she explained.
Justice Ministry spokesman Jean Fransman told RIA that Dutch law allowed documents to remain classified for reasons of national security or if they contained private opinions of “civilian individuals.”
“Each document indicates why its contents, in full or in part, are classified,” he added.
Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 was flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur when it crashed over eastern Ukraine, killing all 298 people onboard.
