As the an­niver­sary of the dead­ly Far­fan Street fire ap­proach­es, the fam­i­ly of the late D’abadie/O’Meara (now Mal­abar/Mau­si­ca) MP Lisa Mor­ris-Ju­lian is ap­peal­ing to the Gov­ern­ment for full ac­cess to the of­fi­cial in­ves­tiga­tive re­port, in­sist­ing trans­paren­cy is crit­i­cal for ac­count­abil­i­ty and clo­sure.

The ap­peal fol­lows com­ments by Home­land Se­cu­ri­ty Min­is­ter Roger Alexan­der in a dai­ly news­pa­per, in which he said Cab­i­net agreed not to make the re­port pub­lic to avoid re-trau­ma­tis­ing the fam­i­ly. Alexan­der al­so dis­closed that fire of­fi­cers in­volved in the in­ci­dent were ex­on­er­at­ed by the in­ves­ti­ga­tion.

But Mor­ris-Ju­lian’s sis­ter, Jozanne, said the fam­i­ly wants full dis­clo­sure of the cir­cum­stances sur­round­ing the deaths of her sis­ter and her two chil­dren.
