Home Affairs Select Committee

Edit links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Home Affairs Committee)

The Home Affairs Select Committee is a departmental select committee of the House of Commons in the Parliament of the United Kingdom.

Remit

[edit]

The Home Affairs Committee is one of the House of Commons select committees related to government departments: its terms of reference are to examine "the expenditure, administration, and policy of the Home Office and its associated public bodies".[1]

The committee chooses its own subjects of inquiry, within the overall terms of reference. It invites written evidence from interested parties and holds public evidence sessions, usually in committee rooms at the House of Commons, although it does have the power to meet away from Westminster.

At the end of each inquiry, the committee will normally agree on a report based on the evidence received. Such reports are published and made available on the internet. Reports usually contain recommendations to the government and other bodies. By convention, the government responds to reports within about two months of publication. These responses are also published.
