Description

Des Fahy interviews Labour MP Keith Vaz on the all party Select Committee report which has criticised the Bank of England for the way it handled the BCCI bank collapse. Vaz, campaigner on behalf of the victims, argues the report strengthens his case in approaching the Chancellor for compensation, and the government should reconsider the promotion of Eddie George to Governor at the Bank of England.
