| Synopsis: |
Recent public inquiries established by Government Ministers to investigate events of public concern have included the Hutton and Butler inquiries into issues surrounding the decision to go to war in Iraq, the Saville inquiry into 'Bloody Sunday', and the Budd inquiry into the events surrounding the resignation of David Blunkett as Home Secretary. This report examines the effectiveness of such inquiries and makes recommendations for improvements to the scope for parliamentary scrutiny, including possible changes to the Inquiries Bill (HL Bill 7, session 2004-05; ISBN 0108418863) currently before Parliament.Recommendations made include: Ministers should justify their decisions whether to hold an inquiry on the basis of a published set of criteria; the Lord Chief Justice or the Senior Law Lord should be equally involved with Ministers in all decisions about the use of judges in inquiries; the need for a new mechanism to enable Parliament to initiate inquiries in cases where Ministers may be unwilling to do so, including the establishment of a Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry, composed of parliamentarians and others; and the use of the Parliamentary Ombudsman in the investigation of breaches of the Ministerial Code. |
