Marcus Agius, the chairman of Barclays, who resigned just days after the UK bank's fine by British and American regulators, appeared before the Treasury Select Committee today. Financial News live-blogged the event.

Agius, who was reinstated as chairman to oversee the process of finding a new chief executive after Bob Diamond stood down as chief executive, was the third senior figure to stand before parliament over the Libor scandal. Diamond stood before the committee last week and Paul Tucker, the deputy governor of the Bank of England, appeared yesterday.
