Probe into Rover has cost £15m (and counting)

The government's inquiry into the demise of the Birmingham-based carmaker MG Rover in 2005 has already cost more than £15m, the government has said.

The investigation is looking into what happened between the acquisition by Phoenix Ventures in 2000 and the firm falling into administration in 2005.
