July 2000 - Submission on behalf of Peter Ellis
Dear Sir Thomas, I enclose my submissions to your Inquiry on behalf of
Mr Ellis. I have assumed that the Ministry of Justice will have provided you

copies with these Submissions.

Children

investigations, nor do they cover current training approaches undertaken by
both Child Youth and Family Services, and the Police. If you want material on
that, please advise……
July 2000 - Submission on behalf of the Parents

instructions have been received by the remaining two sets of parents (parents
of X and Z). The parents of complainants of X and Z have, for personal
reasons chosen not to be involved in this formal representation.
