The chief executive of the royal commission into child sexual abuse, Janette Dines, has resigned.
Dines will leave her position on 6 June.
Justice Peter McClellan, who chairs the royal commission, said Dines had been the driving force behind establishing the commission since its inception in late 2012, but gave no reason for her departure.
“Ms Dines has successfully created the structure and facilities that have enabled the royal commission to achieve a large amount in a short time,” McClellan said in a statement.
“On behalf of the commissioners, I express our great appreciation to Ms Dines for the contribution she has made to our work.”
