Public inquiries should be shorter and recommendations tracked, Lords says
Briefly

The committee's report stresses that a significant overhaul is necessary to restore public confidence among victims and survivors following prolonged and expensive inquiries.
Lord Norton highlighted a 'mismatch in public expectation' when people call for inquiries, but nothing occurs afterward to implement the recommendations.
The report argues that the lack of action on inquiry recommendations not only disrespects victims but also risks the recurrence of similar disasters in the future.
Public trust could be improved if inquiries had set deadlines, with the proposal for a parliamentary committee to ensure compliance with recommendations.
