A scrapped Home Office team responsible for reforming the department in the wake of the Windrush scandal has been reinstated by the home secretary, Yvette Cooper, amid a “fundamental reset” of the government’s response to the issue.
The post-Windrush transformation unit was set up after the 2018 scandal to help introduce cultural change within the Home Office to ensure similar disasters could not occur. It was quietly disbanded by the former home secretary Suella Braverman in 2023.
