Treasury minister gives evidence to public accounts committee
The treasury minister has told the public accounts committee he was never a fan of what potential benefits the Media Development Fund was alleged to be bringing.
At the time the fund was brought in, Alf Cannan was a backbencher.
On Tuesday morning Mr Cannan gave evidence before the committee, which is investigating the 26 million pound losses made by the fund.
He was asked if he was happy that evidence and methodology was currently in place where there was an element of risk involved in an investment:
Pharmacists 'uncomfortable' over proposed contract changes
Local heritage group urging residents to object to demolition of school building
People urged to help protect countryside during hot spell
Man whose son died from meningitis urges people to take up vaccine offer
