Former trustees of Kids Company have condemned a report by a committee of MPs into the charity's demise as "inaccurate, unbalanced and irresponsible".
The report alleged an "extraordinary catalogue of failures" which led the collapse of the charity days after it was handed £3 million in government money in a last-ditch bid to keep it open.
Former trustees of Kids Company have condemned a report by the Commons Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee into the charity's demise as "inaccurate, unbalanced and irresponsible".
They said that the conclusion by MPs that the "trustees, auditors, care experts, inspectors, regulators and the government all failed 'at every level' is astonishing".
The statement went on: "It is a regrettable feature of British democracy that the committee can use the curtain of parliamentary privilege to produce what is an irresponsible report, immune from the defamation claims that would inevitably follow without this privilege."
