Maybe, there should be an inquiry into this

Simon Hoggart is absolutely spot on in his Guardian column about the arrogance of Lord Saville:

“Someone else who seems to want plenty of the public’s money is Lord Saville, whose inquiry into Bloody Sunday has been going for more than a decade, and won’t be complete until the end of next year. It has already cost £182m, and counting. Not surprisingly, the Commons Northern Ireland committee wants to know how this remarkable delay and astonishing expenditure has come about. They asked Saville to see them. He declined firmly, even brusquely. He had nothing more to say than he had already said publicly. He had interviewed 2,500 witnesses, and seen tens of thousands of documents. He was determined to deal with all this “fairly, accurately and thoroughly” (you can say that again) and so, “in these circumstances, I regret to say that I must decline the invitation”. I think that’s a bit of cheek.
