public inquiries

Public inquiries are formal investigations set up by the government or other authorities to examine significant issues, events, or failures. They gather evidence, hear testimonies, and analyze information to understand what happened, why, and how to prevent similar situations in the future. Public inquiries are often seen in cases of public concern, such as disasters or scandals, and aim to ensure transparency and accountability. Their findings can lead to recommendations for policy changes and improvements in practices, ultimately helping to restore public trust.
