Upshot – officials misinform ministers and ministers misinform Parliament, which used to be a hanging offence but now just goes in the SNAFU bucket.<br /><br />Mr Augur has his work cut out.David Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12345636878071983416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3048449668150968412.post-29277950920800829982012-06-14T09:13:52.736+01:002012-06-14T09:13:52.736+01:00Interesting follow-up today in the Telegraph regar...Interesting follow-up today in the Telegraph regarding a letter from Damian Green correcting his evidence to that same committee meeting.<br /><br />http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/aviation/9327710/Minister-wrong-to-blame-Heathrow-delays-on-unexpected-passenger-numbers.html<br /><br /><br /><br />He says that his argument that the queues were down to the airports providing rubbish forecasts of arriving passenger numbers isn't correct. It is just that the official giving him the excuses didn't understand the info he was being provided with.<br /><br />Interestingly Damian also distances himself from the failure of all the Stansted e-gates. They belong to BAA. It is their problem !!<br /><br /><br />http://www.parliament.uk/documents/commons-committees/home-affairs/120606-Damian-Green-to-Chair.pdfAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
