Amid growing financial difficulties, the London Assembly Budget and Performance Committee has issued a summons notice requesting the 2016/17 annual accounts for E20 Stadium LLP.
E20 has been given two weeks to provide the documents.
Committee Chair, Gareth Bacon, said: “This company spends vast amounts of public money, and we know that it is in financial difficulty – but we have been prevented from seeing the accounts of E20 Stadium LLP. Why?,” said committee Chair and Tory assembly leader Gareth Bacon.
A spokesperson for LLDC said it and Newham Council were working closely with E20 “to address the long-standing financial challenges in the best interests of the residents of Newham and Londoners”.
The move comes at a time when a top accountancy firm is working to deliver a report into the overspend on converting the stadium for the Irons.
The then mayor Boris Johnson budgeted £115m which has now nearly doubled to £323m.
