Themes
The evidence session will cover a wide range of matters for which the Home Secretary has responsibility, including:
- the Independent Panel Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse;
- immigration issues, including the Committee’s findings from its recent visit to the migrant camps at Calais;
- counter-terrorism, including British fighters in Syria, the Counter-Terrorism and Security Bill and the CIA’s detention and interrogation programme; and
- recent developments in policing.
Rt Hon Keith Vaz MP, Committee Chair, said:
“This session with the Home Secretary will give the Committee an opportunity to pursue in-depth questioning about her most important responsibilities. Issues concerning counter terrorism and immigration are currently topping the political agenda and therefore it is appropriate for us to probe her on these matters.”
