Some of Britain's leading bankers, who have been blamed for mishandling billions in the run-up to the current economic crisis, will face a grilling in front of television cameras by the Treasury Select Committee this week. On Tuesday, Sir Fred Goodwin and Sir Tom McKillop - the former chief executive and chairman of RBS - face interrogation, alongside Andy Hornby and Lord Stevenson of Coddenham, the former chief executive and chairman of HBOS. On Wednesday, Barclays chief executive John Varley and the Lloyds Banking Group chief executive Eric Daniels will appear alongside Stephen Hester, who recently arrived to help clear up the Royal Bank of Scotland. Lord Mandelson, the business secretary, called last week for banks that have been bailed out by public money to rein in big bonuses for their executives. "The bankers themselves need to consider their own responsibilities in this situation," he said.
