Royal Commissions Australia: What They Are & The Role of Lawyers

Описание: A Royal Commission is a formal public inquiry ordered by the government to investigate a matter of significant public concern. This video explains the purpose of Royal Commissions in Australia, highlighting their role in getting to the bottom of complex issues that are of great public interest. They are a powerful tool used to uncover the truth and ensure accountability.

The video gives several notable examples of past Royal Commissions, including the Grantham Floods Inquiry, the Inquiry into Child Abuse of Indigenous Persons in the Northern Territory, and the Commission into the Home Insulation Scheme. These examples showcase the serious and wide-ranging nature of the issues that Royal Commissions are tasked with investigating.
