Statement by Professor John McMillan, AO

Public submissions to the ABC’s independent review of the editorial self-regulatory system and complaints handling.

Statement by Professor John McMillan, AO

It is incorrect to suggest that the independent inquiry into ABC complaint handling I am conducting with Jim Carroll has only recently decided to invite public submissions.

A public inquiry and submission process was planned from day one.

A standard inquiry practice is to invite public submissions following initial consultations and preparation of an issues paper. That practice has been followed in this inquiry.

An issues paper will shortly be released.

Prof McMillan is a former Commonwealth and NSW Ombudsman.
