Theresa May is going to start giving evidence to the Commons home affairs committee shortly.  Last week the committee took evidence from Mark Sedwill, the permanent secretary at the Home Office, about the child abuse inquires (the main one, that Lady Butler-Sloss would have chaired, and the one into missing Home Office papers, chaired by Sir Peter Wanless and Richard Whittam). At the hearing Keith Vaz, the committee chairman, demanded some information from Sedwill by Friday. Here's the statement Vaz released on Friday after getting the reply from Sedwill.  I am disappointed that the names of the lost files have not been provided to the Committee immediately, particularly considering that Mr Sedwill did not feel it necessary to view the details of the files a year ago when this first came to his attention. He has only done so since being asked to last Tuesday.  Though we welcome the work done by the Mr Sedwill in commissioning the original review, it seems implausible that a redacted list of the files cannot be disclosed more quickly. The Committee will be calling Sir Peter Wanless, Richard Whittam and Lady Butler-Sloss before it.  It is also deeply worrying that the Home Office does not know of how many people were disciplined for the mistreatment of files at the time of the allegations. I am baffled by lack of monitoring performed by the Home Office relating to those dismissed for this type of breach.  We will be questioning Theresa May on these issues when she gives evidence to the Committee on Monday.  Today's hearing will cover a range of issues, and not just the child abuse inquiry.  Here are 10 questions for May to answer.  1. Did anyone realise that Lady Butler-Sloss's links to her brother, the late Lord Havers, would form a potential conflict of interest before she was appointed to chair the child abuse inquiry?  2. Did you try to persuade her not to resign? If you still think she's a suitable candidate, why not?  3. Will the next person appointed chair come have less of an establishment background?  4. Will you ensure that victims are represented on the inquiry panel  4. How large will the inquiry be? How long is it expected to last, and how much is it expected to cost?  6. Why was the bill only published last week when the government knew in April that it would have to legislate?  7. Why aren't MPs getting more time to debate it? Have you considered delaying the recess?  8. What evidence is there that telephone companies will start destroying records if the bill does not become law next week? Can you name any who have said they will do this?  9. Do you accept the bill extends the power of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (Ripa)?  10. What evidence is there that firms will refuse to respond to request for informations if the government does not extend Ripa?
