Yeah, Veritaserum being abused really is an idea that makes me wince; but the problem is - how can you really control Veritaserum? Also, I think that Veritaserum within the Ministry can still be terribly dagnerous - probalby even more dangerous than somewhere outside, because... Well we know the people working there, and in the hands of Umbridge this could lead to a bigger disaster than she created in Hogwarts. I can't really think of any reasons to use it ousdie the Ministry as well, except maybe in the case of Bartey Crouch Jr. after the Triwizard Tournament (which would lead me to thinking why Polyjuice wasn't restricted/monitored either...).
