During his tenure, the name of his ministry was changed from "Ministry of Security and Justice" to "Ministry of Justice and Security", a move costing €2,000,000.
As a response to parliamentary questions following the Argos documentary 'Shards of glass and dark rituals', Grapperhaus said on 27 August 2020 that there would be 'no independent investigation into Ritual Abuse' of children in The Netherlands.
The Green Left, the Socialist Party and the Labour Party criticised the minister for his decision.

He agreed to pay a 390 euro fine.
On the 26th of June 2021, Grapperhuis sang a made up song on Dutch TV about throwing away protective face masks just as a further wave of infections of Covid 19 in the Netherlands was taking hold.
Two weeks later there were 10000 cases per day recorded.
On 13 October, the House of Representatives (Netherlands) approved a motion in which the PvdA, GL and the SP requested that an independent investigation be conducted into the nature and extent of "organized sadistic abuse of children", bypassing Grapperhaus' original refusal to investigate.
