Grenfell Tower: Inquest or Public Inquiry?

The Law Show

Available for over a year

Joshua Rozenberg asks a former High Court judge who has both chaired a public inquiry and conducted an inquest involving a high-profile loss of life whether a public inquiry or a coroner's inquest is the more appropriate vehicle for the investigation of the significant loss of life in the Grenfell Tower fire. He also explores the state of forensic science with one of Britain's most experienced forensic scientists; and asks a leading human rights lawyer why women from Northern Ireland must pay for abortions carried out in England. And he discovers if duplicate contract bridge is a sport.
