Royal Commission Wraps Up

BY IAN CROUCH

After more than 400 days of public hearings, the Royal Commission into child abuse, which focused heavily on the Hunter, draws to a close today.

A panel of six victims and abuse survivors will tell the Commission what they would like to see changed.

The Commission has looked at more than a million documents and has heard from 1200 witnesses.

The Commission will hand down its final report in December.
