The Brian Rossiter Inquiry

4. The outcome of the Inquiry

The Brian Rossiter Inquiry began hearing sworn evidence on Monday December 5th. The inquiry is sitting in private and while the Rossiter family have repeatedly called for this to be a public inquiry, they fully respect the decision of the inquiry chairman Mr. Hugh Hartnett. They also acknowledge that there are certain advantages to the inquiry sitting in private, in particular that the inquiry should be able to proceed to a conclusion with greater speed.

The chairman of the inquiry has asked that no comment be made by those involved in the inquiry that would in any way prejudice the criminal proceedings still pending against a man who allegedly assaulted Brian two days prior to his arrest. For this reason, while it is intended to provide regular updates on progress at the inquiry and related matters on this site, we will not be providing details of the evidence given to the inquiry.
