Summary
Robert Hur, the lawyer who investigated Joe Biden's handling of classified files, will defend his final report to Congress later
He will tell a House committee that his assessment of Biden's memory, which the report said had "significant limitations", was both "accurate and fair"
Hur's findings were published last month - he found Biden kept secret documents and stored them improperly but did not bring criminal charges
But the sections around Biden's memory were seized on by his critics, with Democrats and the White House accusing Hur of going beyond his remit. "My memory is fine," Biden said
A transcript of Hur's interviews with Biden, seen by the BBC's US partner CBS, shows some memory lapses but also detailed exchanges
