The truth is, there are many things we need to prevent, and many things to address, but we rely on the guy at the top to make these decisions and bring in expertise as required.
All the overkill seems to be a deliberate attempt to frustrate and slow everything down. We have a lot of issues to resolve in a very short time. The PM needs to be freed up to deal with things as she sees fit. If she gets it wrong, the GE will judge her on any failures.

Pretty sure the government has advisers for these areas, Old Boy.
If she gets it wrong, Ministers will eventually find the courage to resign and the Conservative Party membership (including those unable to vote in British elections) will decide who our next Prime Minister is, at the slowest pace that they can muster.

An existing source who will advise her. Wonder what that person's job title could be?
