NCTSO

Email dialogue evidence: every email exchanged with the National Counter Terrorism Security Office (NaCTSO) about Great House Farm is catalogued word for word, by thread and date, at National Counter Terrorism Security Office (NaCTSO) — Email Correspondence Catalogue.

Chronology and catalogue links — assessed 10-10-2026: See the Institutional Involvement Roadmap (1877–2026) for the date-ordered institution, people and evidence sequence. The reported 1988 Cadw-to-Minister spot-listing letter has its own placeholder at GHF-E152; the original has not been attached to that page as at 10-10-2026. A placeholder records an evidence gap, not the letter’s content or proof of misconduct.

Forensic Assessment — NCTSO

Scope: National Counter Terrorism Security Office role only where a specific historical record is identified.

Current evidence position

The reviewed Great House Farm record does not presently establish an NCTSO decision or operative role in the title, possession, heritage or demolition history. The organisation should therefore not be treated as part of the historic accountability chain merely because it appears in the project universe. ^{🕒10-10-2026}

Control test

Require an exact document, date, function and decision before opening a substantive workstream.

Current finding

No NCTSO wrongdoing or operative historical role is established. ^{🕒10-10-2026}

Human action

The historical-operational enquiry remains parked unless a court, police, planning, government or archive record provides a concrete lead about the 1988 event. Separately, the modern records-retrieval appearance is now documented and cross-linked above; do not treat it as evidence of historical deployment.

Acceptance: route remains parked with a defined evidence-trigger condition.

Cross-institution record added 9 October 2026: the NPCC’s FOI 3065/2026 retrieval email names NaCTSO among the present-day functions consulted. This establishes a modern records-retrieval appearance only; it does not evidence NaCTSO’s participation in the 1988 operation. See GHF-E106-R51 and the NPCC forensic assessment. ^{🕒10-10-2026}

Institutional appearance timeline — linked source index

Coverage rule: this is a chronological navigation map of published Wiki source pages found by searching the current site index for “NCTSO”. Every event label links directly to the page containing the source. It avoids duplicating source narratives. It records mention/appearance, not culpability. Dates are transcribed from page titles where available; “Date not explicit in title” means the linked source must be consulted. Search indexing is a discovery aid, not proof of exhaustive external coverage. ^{🕒10-10-2026}

Records-access register appearances — direct row links

Rows below match the institution’s name or an alias in the reply register’s sender/reference or recorded description. A match shows an appearance in the records trail, not necessarily an act by this institution.
