Work refuses to admit exactly how many reviews it has launched since the elections, because it would take too long to count them all.
Ministers have rejected attempts by the post and MPs to find out the true scale of what was branded by the BBC on Sunday by the government's 'review itis'.
Public registers have shown that the administration of Sir Keir Starmer has set up at least 67 consultation and task forces within a few months after coming to power, which covers everything, from the future of Defense expenditure to placing a sugar load on Milkshakes.
In recent weeks, a study into three years into social care has also been established, as well as a 'fast audit' in care gangs, both of which will be performed by the problem solver of Whitehall problem solution.
Last week the controversial findings came from a major internal assessment to extremism only due to a leak after the Home Office could not publish it.
But a series of government services has rejected requests by post to provide full details of all the work they have submitted and how much has already been completed.
They said that they do not keep track of assessments and therefore officials who respond to Freedom or Information Act would cost too long to cross the activities of each team.
Defra said: 'Unfortunately your request is very wide and you will cover a huge amount of information, which may go back for more than six months. The search for and collecting it would therefore entail a substantial costs and distraction of resources from the other work of the department. '

At least 67 reviews, consultation and task forces were set up by Whitehall departments in the first 150 days of the new government – almost one every other day
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs called the law that allows public services to refuse FOI applications if they think the staff will cost more than 3.5 working days to comply with and costs more than £ 600.
It said: “Your request as currently formulated is wide framed and I estimate that it will take more than 3 and a half working days to find, pick up and pick up this information.”
The Ministry of Housing said: 'We cannot determine whether we keep all this information to do this, too expensive.
“It can be useful to explain that this information is not held centrally and that we must approach each team individually.”
And the Ministry of Transport said: 'The department keeps all its policy under constant assessment, to ensure that they are tailored to the priorities of the government and deliver the best possible results for the public. There are many policy areas and teams within the department that may carry out assessments, investigations and consultations, whether it is internal or external.
“Since all the policy is assessed and this data is not kept centrally, we must collect information about all policy areas from a diverse range of locations in the department that would exceed the assigned limit.”
Only the office in Noord -Ireland provided the information that it launched one public consultation in the first six months in function of Labor and published the findings of an earlier assessment.
Ministers have also refused to answer a series of parliamentary written questions about the same subject.
In one case Minister of Energy Michael Shanks simply replied: 'The requested information is a matter of public record and available on Gov.uk.
Last night Tory MP Joe Robertson, who tried to get the answers, told this newspaper: 'Labor cannot make a decision. They have ordered the time and money to waste taxpayers to endless talking shops after assessment.
'But not only is this ditthenting government paralyzed by indecision, they don't even know how many reviews they have even ordered. Even worse, when they make a decision, the country leaves the country worse.

Tory MP Joe Robertson said that Labor “can't make a decision” and the government is “paralyzed by indecision”
“Labor spent the election campaign and claimed that they would change the country, so it is time that they got clean about what their plans for change are.”
In the flagship of the BBC on Sunday, presenter Laura Kuensberg said on Sunday that before election work had claimed that it was 'ready to run the ground', but now suffers from 'Review Itis of Consultation Itis'.
A government spokesperson said: 'Repairing the base has a fundamental reconsideration of how the government works – not the knee -young policy – and assessments play an important role in guaranteeing business leaders and other experts can refine government policy and refine timely .
'We will continue with our plan for change to rebuild Great Britain and supply higher standard of living in each part of the UK, delivering £ 22 billion to repair the NHS to reform the planning system to 1, 5 million new houses to be delivered in five years. “
