The ATSB have released a report on their actions and issues raised as part of the investigations they have done, it makes for interesting reading:

Interesting the way issues are addressed differently across the sectors:

The most common avenue to address safety issues that posed a significant risk to aviation safety was to communicate with and/or educate those involved. For marine, changing or reviewing policy or conducting organisational surveillance were the most common ways to address significant safety issues. In rail, the most common ways to address significant safety issues involved technical actions and policy changes .
