Evidence library

This section of the site contains evidence already led by Inquiry counsel in public hearing sessions. Please note, this means evidence will be added over time, during the course of the hearings.

Evidence - documents, audio and video - led in a public session will be added the following day.

To make searching easier you can filter by evidence type, witness type and witness name. The search function will highlight all evidence related to your search term. Click on a tile below to view the file/s.

If no hearing date is shown for a piece of evidence it means the witness gave a statement to the Inquiry but was not called to appear in person.
