The chief executive of Royal Bank of Scotland has defended his bank's pay structure to a committee of MPs.

Stephen Hester faced several questions from the Treasury Committee on expected bonuses and on his own pay package, worth a potential £9.6m.

He said that although the salary was fair, his own parents thought he was paid too much.
