Leaked document alleges BAE hush money
BAE Systems has being accused of paying hush money to two Australian airlines, the Daily Mail reports:
In a House of Lords debate, Lord Tyler pointed the finger at the defence company over a 14-year secret deal between British Aerospace Regional Aircraft, East West Airlines and Ansett Transport Industries.
The Liberal Democrat peer claimed a leaked document signed in 1993 shows BAE paid the airlines £329,000 to silence them about ‘the leak of toxic fumes into aircraft cabins’.
Lord Tyler’s questions and the Government’s responses are available on the TheyWorkForYou website here.
