Libor scandal: emails released ahead of Treasury Select Committee hearing The additional emails were released following a request by Labour MP John Mann for "all email exchanges" between Paul Tucker, deputy governor of the Bank of England, the government, and Bob Diamond, the former chief executive of Barclays. The Bank of England added that it was "continuing with the searches and will obviously let you know if we locate any new material." On 10 December 2008 it was announced that Mr Tucker would become a Deputy Governor of the Bank of England. The Bank has a note of an e-mail exchange between Mr Diamond and Mr Tucker on 11 December 2008 in which Mr Diamond says, "Paul, Congratulations Wei! done, man. Talk soon. Bob" and Mr Tucker says "Thanks so much Bob. You've been an absolute brick through this. Paul. These emails, being of a purely personal nature, were not of a kind that the Bank's procedures require to be filed, but as we have found some reference to their existence, we have included them here in the interests of full disclosure.
