The former bosses and auditor of collapsed retail chain Wilko have been summoned to appear before MPs next week to explain why the 92-year-old company went bust.
Wilko had 400 shops and employed about 12,000 staff before it disappeared from the high street.
MPs said on Thursday they wanted to probe a £50m shortfall in Wilko’s pension fund and “the Wilkinson family’s justification for taking millions of pounds in dividends out of the firm”.
