The chair of the Public Accounts Committee has told Sky News she "could weep for the five years" lost by the decision to abolish the organisation set up to deliver the long-term renovation of parliament.

Dame Meg Hillier MP says there is an "unacceptable cloak of secrecy" around the decision to send the restoration programme back to the drawing board after the estimated costs rose to between £7bn and £22bn.

But every week the work isn't done costs £2.5m maintenance and former leader of the house Dame Andrea Leadsom says she's worried the Palace of Westminster could be Britain's Notre Dame.
