In today’s Australian Chris Kenny has a wholly accurate piece on Gillian Triggs. Kenny sets out the ways in which Triggs has been a terrible Australian Human Rights Commission president. He notes how Triggs allowed three QUT students to be pursued by her commission for years over nothing. He reminds us that Triggs delayed a public inquiry into children in detention for 18 months, as it happens until the Coalition took office (and no, the Labor government was not in caretaker mode when the inquiry was first mooted).
