2009 Victorian Bushfires Royal Commission
The 2009 Victorian Bushfires Royal Commission on Saturday 31 July 2010 handed its final report to the Governor of Victoria, Professor David de Kretser AC.
The four-volume report is the culmination of an 18-month inquiry into the causes and circumstances of the fires that devastated parts of Victoria in January and February 2009, killing 173 people.
The Commissioners, the Hon. Bernard Teague AO, Ms Susan Pascoe AM and Mr Ron McLeod AM, have made 67 recommendations which will now be considered by the Victorian Government and others.
The report is available online at www.royalcommission.vic.gov.au and also at www.vic.gov.au.
