Inquiry into the 2006 Victorian state electionThe Committee may invite people to a public hearing, to make representations directly to the members of the Committee and to answer questions put by the Committee. This allows the Committee to follow up points of interest and concern and often lets people who have made submissions amplify points and give additional information.
Public hearings are recorded and a transcript of evidence prepared, to ensure that the Committee has an accurate record of proceedings.
