MPs on business committee launch Liberty Steel enquiry
The collapse of Greensill has sparked a huge lobbying scandal involving former PM David Cameron and put the fate of Liberty Steel up in the air.
The parliamentary business select committee has today launched an enquiry into Liberty Steel following the collapse of Greensill Capital.
It is at least the fourth enquiry into issues arising out of the failure of the boutique financier to have been launched so far amid a massive lobbying scandal involving former Prime Minister David Cameron.
The BEIS committee said it would co-ordinate with the Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee (PACAC), the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), and the Treasury Committee on its work.

Boris Johnson has been accused of telling aides he would rather let coronavirus “rip” than impose a second lockdown, in the latest allegation levelled at the Prime Minister.
He was reported on Monday night to have argued during a Government debate in September that lockdowns were “mad” as he raised concerns about the economic harm they cause.
Downing Street described the claims in the Times as “gross distortions” of Mr Johnson’s position, as he battled a bitter briefing war that has engulfed No 10.
Mr Johnson will tell the Cabinet on Tuesday that the Government must “stay totally focused on the public’s priorities, on fighting Covid, delivering vaccines and creating jobs as we proceed on the path back to normality”, according to reports.
