BBC board members' expenses to be made public
But corporation denies release of information is a response to MPs' expenses outrage. By Mark Sweney
The BBC is to publish the details of expenses of executive board members, including the director general, Mark Thompson, as part of moves to make the corporation more open and accountable.
From October the BBC will make public the expenses of Thompson and the other eight members of the BBC executive board, as well as the corporation's non-executive directors, every six months.
