‘Those 62 recommendations have been hanging out there for 3 years,’ Ted Hughes says
The retired judge who led the Phoenix Sinclair inquiry says it’s time for a report card on the implementation of his 62 recommendations.
Ted Hughes, who led the $14-million public inquiry into how Manitoba’s Child and Family Services system failed five-year-old Phoenix before she was murdered in 2005, says a recent report by the province’s Children’s Advocate shows there has not been significant change.
“The previous government said they would implement all the 62 recommendations I made. Whether that’s the commitment of the current government, I don’t know,” Hughes said.
