There have been around 120 Public Inquiries (as the legal term) into health-related incidents since the Ely psychiatric hospital scandal in 1969. Many key strategic policy changes have come about as a result of Public Inquiries including Duty of Candour, DBS checks, and other key regulations (Timmins, Ely and After 2018). However, there are a number of sizeable challenges associated with public inquiries which don’t always provide the answers in a relatable form, for those who so desperately need them. More, Public Inquiries are often demanded when people have lost faith in the handling of an investigation or review, where there is a lack of evident independence on behalf of the review team or the billpayer, or there is the appearance of a scope which has been reduced or adapted in some way.
