Middlesbrough Labour MP Andy McDonald made the claims last month in the House of Commons - now Conservatives want to repeat the allegations without the protection of parliamentary privilege.
According to reports in the FT, Chris Musgrave and Martin Corney and their companies have control of 90% of the STDC.
Simon Clarke, the MP for Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland, tweeted: “Andy McDonald needs to put up or shut up - either repeat his corruption allegation outside Parliamentary privilege, or apologise for it and withdraw it.” Jacob Young, the Tory MP for Redcar and Cleveland, said:"Andy McDonald keeps hiding behind parliamentary privilege to smear our progress, and even slippery Starmer won't back him."We won't let the wreckers win."Mr Houchen told the BBC that Mr McDonald was a"coward".
The government is currently considering whether or not to order a full National Audit Office inquiry into the Teesworks project. Shadow levelling up secretary Lisa Nandy wants an investigation to take place, and Mr Houchen has said he would welcome the probe as well.
