The World Legal Information Institute Law Collection: Effective access to European legal information for Australian researchers Reports of royal commissions and other public inquiries provide essential context for legislative and judicial developments over time. Public inquiries are a reliable mechanism to investigate allegations of misconduct and maladministration and to provide independent policy advice to the executive. The public inquiry plays a central role in the public debate and development of Australian law and order and is an essential part of Australian historical records. Recent research, such as the Royal Commission on Child Sexual Abuse and the Royal Commission on Banking, has also highlighted the importance of research expression to communities. The online publication of these resources, integrated with the plethora of other legal resources on AustLII, will create the most comprehensive facility for researchers and policy analysts and for anyone who wants to better understand developments in Australian law, history, politics and public policy. These resources represent an investment in the rule of law in Australia.
