Live reaction to Sports Direct boss Mike Ashley's appearance before MPs.
Mike Ashley has told MPs that the claims of mistreatment and poor working conditions at Sports Direct shows the business has "definitely outgrown me".
"I can only do my best and my best may not be good enough," he said.
Mr Ashley earlier pledged to implement a number of changes to working practices within 90 days.
He promised to write to MPs if the time frame needs to be extended.
"You're pushing against an open door," Mr Ashley said on his willingness to deal with issues at his retail chain.
Allegations of bad working conditions at Sports Direct's main warehouse are appalling - but Mike Ashley appeared to have little oversight.
The tycoon told MPs things had happened at the retail giant that "shouldn't happen" after conditions were likened to a "labour camp".
The billionaire is set to answer questions later this morning over working conditions at his Shirebrook warehouse.
