the Home Office


Dear Mr Khalid Mahmood MP,


I am writing to you with regard to the Home Office.


In recent weeks we have seen more and more evidence come out that the Home Office has been reduced to rubble by a Prime Minister and a Labour government obsessed with legislation, instead of good administration.


I believe that it is time to bring in outside expertise to find out what on earth is going on at the Home Office.


Therefore I am writing to you to ask that you encourage the government to ask the National Audit Office to form a task force to investigate the lamentable response to the current crisis in the Home Office.


The Home Secretary John Reid's latest admission that he provided inaccurate information to the House of Commons comes at a time when every civil servant in that department must be acutely aware of the need to provide reliable information.


It is unprecedented for the Home Secretary to admit that he cannot guarantee the accuracy of his statements to Parliament and the government. The government must now ask the National Audit Office to form a task force to investigate why this has happened and how it can be prevented in the future.


Yours sincerely,
Adam Nazir Ahmed Teladia
