Thank you, Joshua. One can’t help wondering how all their regular work is to be done, given what appears to be an ever-increasing number of judge-led inquiries.
Lady Justice Thirlwall strikes me as an excellent, cerebral and authoritative choice. Also if the questions in effect constitute her remit the inquiry should be enabled to be a genuine quest for the truth, however uncomfortable for various key players.
A question, if I may: do judges engaged in such an enquiry take on additional work during its course?
They are given time off from their normal responsibilities. But they can continue to sit if they have time. That's my understanding, anyway.

Let us most certainly hope so.
