Hall pledges to cap payoffs for outgoing BBC executives
The Guardian, 26/04/2013, p.23, John Plunkett; Lisa O'carroll
Hall defended the BBC's recent controversial Panorama programme to the committee, in which undercover reporter John Sweeney travelled to North Korea with a group of students from the London School of Economics. But he admitted it would have been better to get the students' written consent after three of them complained that the BBC had not properly briefed them about the risks of the trip.

BBC chief tries to halt gravy train by limiting pay-offs to £150,000
The Daily Telegraph, 26/04/2013, p.17, Gordon Rayner; Victoria Ward

What a floating currency gives and what it does not
Financial Times, 26/04/2013, p.11, Martin Wolf
As Belgian economist Paul De Grauwe of the London School of Economics has noted, the benefits of retaining a currency on one’s own are visible in the post-crisis interest rates paid on long-term public debt. The observation is simple: the International Monetary Fund’s forecasts for the ratio of net public debt to gross domestic product of the UK and Spain are essentially identical.

guardian.co.uk (Web), 25/04/2013, Jason Deans Josh Halliday
