Seán Ryan is the President of the Irish Court of Appeal. He previously served as a judge of the High Court. As a barrister, he was Senior Counsel to the inquiry into abuse in the Catholic diocese of Ferns (the Ferns Report), and was chairman of the Compensation Advisory Committee that prepared guidelines on compensation to be paid to abuse survivors at the Residential Institutions Redress Board. In September 2003 Ryan was selected to head the Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse following the controversial resignation of the previous chair, The Hon. Miss Justice Mary Laffoy, who claimed her work had been systematically obstructed by the Department of Education.〔 The government appointed him a High Court judge, without seeking a recommendation from the Judicial Appointments Advisory Board, "to guarantee that the integrity and independence of the chairperson will be maintained."〔 Ryan published the Commission's public report on 20 May 2009 and it was immediately hailed as "a work of incalculable value to this country" and praised for its "meticulous gathering of evidence", though "Justice has not been done as many of the abusers will never face the rigours of the law." In 2014 he was named by the Government as the President designate of the new Court of Appeal.〔http://www.merrionstreet.ie/index.php/2014/07/announcement-of-six-judges-designate-of-the-court-of-appeal/?cat=12〕 He was nominated as President of the court by the Government on 29 October 2014 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Appointments to the Court of Appeal )〕 and appointed by the President of Ireland on the same day.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=President appoints Appeal Court Judges )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seán Ryan (Irish judge)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
