Hearing chamber

76 Extensive use was made of IT in the hearing chamber. In particular, use was made of the document database that allowed scanned images to be displayed on a number of computer screens instantaneously within and outside the chamber. This allowed the witness, the Chairman and Panel, members of the public and legal representatives simultaneously to see the document being discussed. These images were also displayed on screens in other rooms on the hearing chamber floor, namely the waiting room and the overflow room. They were also relayed to the Secretariat and the Solicitor's team on the floor below, who also had an e-mail link to Counsel to the Inquiry.
