Goddard resigns

"In another hugely disappointing turn for the nation’s Independent Inquiry Into Child Sexual Abuse, Chair Lowell Goddard has just handed in her resignation."

"Giving no reason for the decision, she simply asks the Home Secretary to accept her decision to resign with immediate effect."

"Some are speculating that the move is a reaction to the recent criticism over Justice Goddard’s decision to take a three month holiday since first being appointed as Inquiry Chair. Others have suggested that the press interest in her confusion over British law, reluctance to fully incorporate survivors within the Inquiry and questionable rank within the New Zealand judiciary could be factors in her departure."

  1. I think you will find that she was sacked by a government who are interfering in the process of justice to control the outcome?

  2. Similar to what is happening with the Scottish child abuse inquiry.
