So far, they've not really owned up to where it went. The best the
managed to come up with for the Parliamentary committee was "More than
£20 million", well, £200 million is more than £20 millions...
I would like to see this information put fully into the public domain,
there is no reason why it should not be, in my view, as the BBC are a
corporation, and the freedom of information act should make this
visible. If they try to hide it, then I think we can be fairly sure
that something less than honest has been afoot.
