Kennedy to lead MPs' cash body
AN ACADEMIC lawyer and former TV host is to chair the body responsible for the shake-up of MPs' expenses, it was reported last night.
Reports that Sir Ian Kennedy has been selected to chair the new Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority came on the eve of the publication of the Kelly Report, which is expected to demand swingeing cuts in the cash MPs can claim.
Sir Ian is Emeritus Professor at University College London and in the 1980s hosted Channel 4 discussion show After Dark.
