- Full article: Al-Yamamah arms deal
The 1992 report into the Al-Yamamah arms deal was withheld from (some?) members of this committee.[citation needed] In October 1994, Tam Dalyell submitted documents to parliament that he claimed proved Mark Thatcher was also involved and received a £12 million commission on the deal signed off by his mother while she was UK Prime Minister. The Public Accounts Committee decided not to investigate.[1]
