That this House notes the recent report of the National Audit Office on the Criminal Records Bureau and numerous other reports of wasted public funds on public sector computer projects; further notes the evidence of Computer Weekly to the Work and Pensions sub committee on computer projects; supports the call for best practice to be enshrined in United Kingdom law; supports the call for gateway reviews by the Office of Government Commerce to be published; and notes that Government departments are sometimes misusing the defence of commercial confidentiality to keep information out of the public domain; and urges the Government to change this practice.
