BRITISH big business came under pressure from MPs yesterday after failing to cough-up compensation to victims of the 2013 Rana Plaza disaster in Bangladesh.

The inquest held by the all-party parliamentary group on ethics and sustainability was supported by the TUC and ethical trading organisation Labour Behind the Label.

Shadow international development minister Alison McGovern told the Star that it was shocking that many of the injured workers and the families of the dead were still awaiting full compensation payments.
