This amendment makes it clear that the Secretary of State has a duty to stamp out sloppiness in decision-making, not just in her department but in all the others and to emphasise the importance of following the policy rules, local and national, however complex they may appear. If there is the need to hire outside professional experts, it is about those decision-makers having the judgment to recognise when they are getting the right advice, not just the advice they want to hear.
