The MPs behind the inquiry into Carillion’s collapse have written to more than 20 people including business secretary Greg Clark, work and pensions secretary Esther McVey and former chief executive Richard Howson asking them to comment on their findings published last week.

The work and pensions and business committees have written to all the witnesses, as well as interested groups, from the inquiry telling them to get responses back by early July.

The letters include a request to the former treasury committee chair and incoming head of the Competition & Markets Authority, Andrew Tyrie, to launch a review of the Big Four accounting firms, including the possibility of breaking them up, at the earliest opportunity.
