Witness sessions
All of the evidence generated by the Inquiry was presented to the Commission in eight ‘Theme Books’. These summarised and collated the evidence under thematic headings. The research interviews in the Theme Books were edited and proofed to ensure they were more readable for the Commission. However, they still bear a close resemblance to their verbatim form. A small number of those who gave evidence to the Inquiry asked for their evidence to remain ‘off the record’.
Theme Book 8 collated all the evidence that was submitted in a non-digital format and as such cannot be included here.
