I'm not sure how, as the issue with Humberside was their destruction of
records relating to allegations over Huntley's conduct in the past rather
than their failure to disclose information.  

They had nothing to disclose as they claimed the ICO had given guidance that
the records should be disclosed, a claim that was dismissed during the
Bichard enquiry into the whole fiasco.

Yes, but my point is that the investigation could have been concluded a lot
earlier if that information had been disclosed rather than IH being
broadcast over our screens making out he was trying to help the
investigation...and then for the poor parents to then find out that the
callous so and so was in fact the perpetrator.
Oh well, it's nearly Friday.....

What was being not disclosed then? If it was the Humberside Police not
passing on to Cambridgeshire Police the full details of earlier suspicions
about Huntley, when he was being vetted for a position at a school (and not
the same school the murdered kids went to), then that was a much wider and
less specific decision.

[aiui, even if Huntley had failed the vetting he might easily have got a job
doing something else locally and still been at home when the kids called to
visit his entirely appropriately vetted, but temporarily absent,
girlfriend.]
