Public inquiry

A tribunal of inquiry is an official review of an event or action ordered by a government agency. In many countries common law, such as the UK, Ireland, Australia and Canada, such as public inquiry is different from the Royal Commission because public investigations receive evidence and conduct hearings in more general forums and focus on more incidents Specific. Interested community members and organizations may not only make written submissions as well as most questions, but also listen to oral evidence provided by others.

Typical events for public inquiry are those that cause many deaths, such as public transport accidents or mass murder. In addition, in the UK, the Planning Inspectorate, an agency of the Department for Communities and Local Government, routinely conducts public inquiries into major and lower land use developments, including roads and other transport proposals.

Advocacy groups and opposition political parties tend to seek public scrutiny for all sorts of problems. Today's government typically only accesses a fraction of this request. The political decision whether to designate a public inquiry into an event is found to depend on several factors. The first is the media coverage of the event; those who receive more media interest are more likely to be asked. Secondly, since the appointment of a public inquiry is usually done by government ministers, events involving allegations of errors in the relevant ministerial section are likely not to be investigated by public inquiry. Third, public inquiry generally takes longer to report and more costs due to its public nature. Thus, when a government rejects a public inquiry on a topic, there is usually at least one of these basics.

The conclusions of the inquiry are submitted in the form of a written report, given first to the government, and immediately after publication. This report will generally make recommendations to improve the quality of government or the management of public organizations in the future. Recent studies show that public inquiry reports are ineffective in changing public opinion about the event in question. In addition, public inquiry reports appear to enjoy public confidence only when they are critical of the government, and tend to lose credibility when they find no fault on the part of the government.

French

In France, any major project requiring the acquisition of a compulsory private property, before being approved, becomes the subject of a public inquiry (usually by a regional prefect or department where the project will take place); a favorable outcome of such an inquiry is the claration d'utilitÃÆ' Â © publique , a formal finding that the project will produce public benefits. This procedure was established by a law on expropriation which took effect on 7 July 1833, extending the previous law enacted in 1810.
