Hearing schedule
Use the drop-down tabs below to view a witness schedule for the current, and previous, hearings.
Hearings normally run Tuesday to Friday, from 10am till 4.15pm. There will usually be morning and afternoon sessions with a break for lunch.
During hearings the Inquiry publishes the witness schedule for the week ahead, usually on the Friday before. When the schedule cannot yet be confirmed, it will be published on the following Monday i.e. one day before the week's hearings.
Please note that although we will always publish the most up-to-date information, the schedule is subject to change. Police witnesses with involvement in the incident are referred to by the rank they were at the time.
Previous hearings are archived in the hearings hub section of the website.
