ANDY Hornby, the former Halifax Bank of Scotland (HBOS) chief executive, will next week be grilled by a parliamentary panel about his actions in the run-up to the bank's takeover by Lloyds TSB during the 2008 financial crisis.
The combined Lloyds Banking Group later needed a £20 billion taxpayer bailout.
Mr Hornby will appear alongside predecessor Sir James Crosby, HBOS chief executive between 2001 and 2005, at a hearing of the Parliamentary Commission on Banking Standards.
