The Wanless review into how the Home Office, Police and Prosecutors dealt with claims of organised child abuse in the 1970s, 80s and 90s was published today.
The probe considered whether the Home Office conducted an adequate review last year into information passed on by the late Tory MP Geoffrey Dickens.
It confirmed that Home Office files had been destroyed but reported no evidence of a cover-up.
Peter Wanless, who has been PPS to Michael Portillo, Norman Lamont and John Major has also been in charge at the National Lottery.
During his time at the lottery he would have come across Lady Diana Brittan, who was a member of the Lottery board.
Wanless was also ordered by the Labour party government at the time to reduce not only the running costs of the Lottery ie wages,rents etc - 10% of ALL revenue - but also his own expenses which the party considered 'excessive'.
Peter Wanless - not a good choice to be leading any inquiry into establishment figures and wrong-doings.
