    How many more .........the mind boggles......

    .Serious Fraud Office chief who worked at home spent £100,000 on travel costs

    Phillippa Williamson was allowed to run up bill in deal criticised as 'quite astounding' by MPs

    Taxpayers spent £100,000 in travel and hotel costs for the former head of the Serious Fraud

    Office (SFO) after she was allowed a "quite astounding" deal enabling her to work part of the

    week from the Lake District, MPs said in a report.

    Phillippa Williamson also received a pension top-up of more than £400,000, even though the

    arrangement had not been approved by Civil Service chiefs.

    In a stinging report published today by the House of Commons Public Accounts Committee

    (PAC), MPs berate the SFO for presiding over a "catalogue of errors and poor judgement" in

    drawing up terms for senior staff. Ms Williamson, who stepped down as its chief executive in

    2012 after four years, was responsible for the agency's day-to-day operation.
