Rain Newton-Smith to be asked whether CBI can still claim to speak for big businesses after scandal
The new boss of the Confederation of British Industry will be asked whether the lobbying group can still claim to speak for big businesses when she faces MPs on Tuesday.
Rain Newton-Smith, a former CBI chief economist who has rejoined as director general while it grapples with the fallout from a sexual misconduct scandal, is to take questions on the organisation’s failings and its future ambitions during an appearance before the business and trade committee.
