The Fagan Scholarship

Yet another sexist, one sided scholarship for the promotion of some idealistic agenda ?

I’m sure this is what CPO Fagan was all about…
(pun)

Before the flames start about females being minority bleh blah blah bleet, lets consider firstly that CPO Fagan was at the top of the ladder.

JB, there is no political mileage to be made out of this so there will not be any Royal Commission.

If Stanhope were to want one then firstly you have to ask why. Secondly Stanhope is akin to the Lord Mayor of Wollongong with respect to the power to demand anything.

A scholarship is much more useful than a statue.

If the local Government were to publicly request the Federales start a royal commission it would be hard to see it being refused.

If the Marks Royal Commission was worthwhile it is hard to see how this is any less important.

If you mean when are we going to get a responsible government then your guess is as good as mine.

If you mean an inquiry. Not F..ing likely.

The ACT govt wouldn’t have jurisdiction for a start seeing how its a QLD death and AF was a Commonwealth employee. The AFP wouldn’t be calling for it as in my opinion the death had more to do with national AFP bullying of ACTP than a hack writing an opinion piece in a local rag that nobody even reads.

Well a responsible government could commission it’s own inquiry.

I wonder where we’re going to get one of those.

The Qld coroner only will need to concern him/herself with the manner and cause of the death which will be covered by the basic police investigation, forensic recording of the scene, post mortem examination by the pathologist and the submission of the suicide notes.

Unless the family requests it, there will be no public inquest as is the case with the 50 odd suicides we get in the ACT each year.

When you say ’causes of death’, you mean why she committed suicide?

“areas of care and protection” is a pretty broad category.
