Lindsay Tribunal Report: Motion.

 

In my opinion the Lindsay report is couched in flawed language. Nobody has been brought to task for this. I was surprised that previous speakers justified Judge Lindsay's position and made excuses for her. I do not hold with that. A judge charged with presiding over a tribunal should be given a job specification and told what they are required to do and what is expected of them. As Senator Feighan stated, 79 people have died and many hundreds of others are living with a time-bomb. It is for this reason I support the decision to refer the report to the DPP.
