Police chief in expenses quiz
25 January 2007
Assistant commissioner Andy Hayman, the force's anti-terrorism boss, has been questioned over expenses including for hotel stays and drinks, according to reports.
The Metropolitan Police Authority confirmed a report into expenses allegations would be examined by a committee of its members.
A spokesman said: "We can confirm there is a report which is going to be considered by the MPA's professional standards sub-committee.
"The report concerns expenditure relating to hospitality and will be considered in due course."
A Scotland Yard spokesman referred inquiries on the matter to the police authority.
Mr Hayman, 48, is not accused of breaking the law, a newspaper reported.
The high-flying officer started his career with Essex Police in 1978 and later worked for the Met as head of the anti-corruption department.
He became chief constable of the Norfolk force in 2002, but returned to London in 2005 to take the job of assistant commissioner in charge of specialist operations, his current role.
His duties include leading the fight against Islamist terrorism and protecting the Royal family.
