Public inquiries
About This Settlement
A public inquiry is set up to address significant public concern about major events to learn the facts of what happened and make findings and recommendations that will, hopefully, prevent something similar from happening again.
Public inquiries are a necessary and effective vehicle to ensure lessons are learnt for the future. They are high profile, complex, often generating thousands and thousands of documents and the focus of intense media scrutiny. Emma Jones heads the eight-person Leigh Day inquiry team.
Emma Jones, Beatrice Morgan, Sandeep Michael and Sarah Westoby currently act for the Hepatitis C Trust and over 297 individuals in the Infected Blood Inquiry.
The Infected Blood Inquiry has investigated how many thousands of patients were provided with contaminated blood by the NHS during the 1970’s and 1980’s and, as a direct result, contracted one or more of the blood-borne viruses, HIV, HCV and HBV.
