For almost two months the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse has been falling apart in public. The Times investigation reveals it has been in a dysfunctional state for more than a year.
It was hoped the departure in August of Dame Lowell Goddard would solve the inquiry’s problems and set it back on course. Instead other problems came to the surface. Chief among them was discord in the legal team which led to the departure last month of the two senior barristers, Elizabeth Prochaska and Ben Emmerson.
Sadly the inquiry is no longer fit for purpose.
