British Empire
The British Empire comprised the dominions, colonies, protectorates, mandates and other territories ruled or administered by the United Kingdom. It originated with the overseas colonies and trading posts established by England in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. At its height it was the largest empire in history and, for over a century, was the foremost global power. By 1922 the British Empire held sway over about 458 million people, one-quarter of the world's population at the time, and covered more than 13 million square miles (34 million km2), almost a quarter of the Earth's total land area. As a result, its political, linguistic and cultural legacy is widespread. At the peak of its power, it was often said that "the sun never sets on the British Empire" because its span across the globe ensured that the sun was always shining on at least one of its numerous territories.

Priorities[link]
The Department outlined its aims for this Parliament in its Business Plan, which was published in May 2011 and superseded its Structural Reform Plan.[6] The plan said the department will:
-
- 1. Empower the public to hold the police to account for their role in cutting crime
-
- Introduce directly elected Police and Crime Commissioners and make police actions to tackle crime and anti-social behaviour more transparent
-
- 2. Free up the police to fight crime more effectively and efficiently
-
- Cut police bureaucracy, end unnecessary central interference and overhaul police powers in order to cut crime, reduce costs and improve police value for money. Simplify national institutional structures and establish a National Crime Agency to strengthen the fight against organised crime (and replace the Serious Organised Crime Agency)
-
- 3. Create a more integrated criminal justice system
-
- Help the police and other public services work together across the criminal justice system
-
- 4. Secure our borders and reduce immigration
-
- Deliver an improved migration system that commands public confidence and serves our economic interests. Limit non-EU economic migrants, and introduce new measures to reduce inflow and minimise abuse of all migration routes, for example the student route. Process asylum applications more quickly, and end the detention of children for immigration purposes
-
- 5. Protect people's freedoms and civil liberties
-
- Reverse state interference to ensure there is not disproportionate intrusion into people‟s lives
-
- 6. Protect our citizens from terrorism
-
- Keep people safe through the Government‟s approach to counter-terrorism
-
- 7. Build a fairer and more equal society (through the Government Equalities Office)
-
- Help create a fair and flexible labour market. Change culture and attitudes. Empower individuals and communities. Improve equality structures, frontline services and support; and help Government Departments and others to consider equality as a matter of course
-
- 1. Empower the public to hold the police to account for their role in cutting crime
The Home Office publishes progress against the plan on the 10 Downing Street website.[7]

On 27 March 1782, the Home Office was formed by renaming the existing Southern Department, with all existing staff transferring. On the same day, the Northern Department was renamed the Foreign Office.
To match the new names, there was a transferring of responsibilities between the two Departments of State. All domestic responsibilities were moved to the Home Office, and all foreign matters became the concern of the Foreign Office.
Most subsequently created domestic departments (excluding, for instance, those dealing with education) have been formed by splitting responsibilities away from the Home Office.
The initial responsibilities were:
- Answering petitions and addresses sent to the King
- Advising the King on
- Royal grants
- Warrants and commissions
- The exercise of Royal Prerogative
- Issuing instructions on behalf of the King to officers of the Crown, Lords Lieutenant and magistrates, mainly concerning law and order

Anonymous attack[link]
On April 7 2012, hacktivist group Anonymous temporarily took down the UK Home Office website. The group took responsibility for the attack, the attack was part of ongoing Anonymous activity in protest against the deportation of hackers as part of Operation TrialAtHome. One Anonymous source claimed in their tweet it was also launched in retaliation for "draconian surveillance proposals".[9]
Location[link]
From 1978 to 2004, the Home Office was located at 50 Queen Anne's Gate, a Brutalist office block in Westminster designed by Sir Basil Spence, close to St. James's Park tube station. Many functions, however, were devolved to offices in other parts of London and the country, notably the headquarters of the Immigration and Nationality Directorate in Croydon.
In Spring 2005, the Home Office moved to a new main office designed by Sir Terry Farrell at 2 Marsham Street, Westminster, SW1P 4DF, on the site of the demolished Marsham Towers building of the Department of the Environment.[10] The contract to build the new headquarters was a public-private partnership deal intended to last for around 29 years.
For external shots of its fictional Home Office, the TV series Spooks uses an aerial shot of the Government Offices Great George Street instead, serving as stand-in to match the distinctly less modern appearance of the fictitious accommodation interiors the series uses.
Research[link]
To meet the UK's 5-year science and technology strategy,[11] the Home Office sponsors research in police sciences including:
- Biometrics – including face and voice recognition
- Cell type analysis – to determine the origin of cells (e.g. hair, skin)
- Chemistry – new techniques to recover latent fingerprints
- DNA – identifying offender characteristics from DNA
- Improved Profiling – of illicit drugs to help identify their source
- Raman Spectroscopy – to provide more sensitive drugs and explosives detectors (e.g. roadside drug detection)
- Terahertz imaging methods and technologies – e.g. image analysis and new cameras, to detect crime, enhance images and support anti-terrorism
Devolution[link]
Most front-line law and order policy areas, such as policing and criminal justice, are devolved in Scotland and Northern Ireland but the following reserved and excepted matters are handled by Westminster.
Scotland[12]
Reserved matters:
- The Misuse of Drugs Act 1971
- Extradition legislation, but Scottish Ministers (through the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service) have executive responsibility for all aspects of mutual legal assistance
- Most aspects of Firearms legislation, but Scottish Ministers have some executive responsibilities for the licensing of firearms and will gain more when the Scotland Bill 2011 receives royal assent
- Immigration and nationality
- Scientific procedures on live animals
The Scottish Government Justice and Communities Directorates are responsible for devolved justice and home affairs policy.
Northern Ireland[13]
Excepted matters:
- Extradition (as an international relations matter)
- Immigration and nationality
The following matters were not transferred at the devolution of policing and justice on 12 April 2010 and remain reserved:[14]
The Home Office's main counterparts in Northern Ireland are:
- Department of Justice (policing, public order and community safety)
- Northern Ireland Office (national security in Northern Ireland)[15]
The Department of Justice is accountable to the Northern Ireland Executive whereas the Northern Ireland Office is a UK Government department.
Wales
Under the Welsh devolution settlement, specific policy areas are transferred to the National Assembly for Wales rather than reserved to Westminster.
