The England and Wales Cricket Board's handling of the Yorkshire club's racism scandal was "deeply disappointing", according to the former chairman.
He questioned the process's independence.
The former chairman was disappointed that the conduct of the ECB had not been looked into.
The European Central Bank didn't say anything.
The governing body said it had finished its investigation.
Azeem Rafiq, a former player at Yorkshire, said that he felt suicidal because of discrimination.
An independent panel upheld seven of Rafiq's allegations after Yorkshire launched a formal investigation.
No player, employee or executive faced discipline as a result of the findings of the panel.
The result led to Yorkshire being suspended from hosting international matches until it proved it could meet the standards expected. The chief executive and chairman stepped down.
Yorkshire's right to host England Test matches was restored by the England and Wales Cricket Board. After completing a thorough and complex investigation, it was able to establish the grounds for the charges against both the county and the individuals involved.
The governing body did not consider it appropriate to investigate the allegations, despite the fact that they could have done more.
You will remember that the ECB was aware of Azeem's allegations. He said that they didn't do anything about them.
Despite the obvious difficulties it faced in doing so, they did not offer to help the YCCC. This needs to be questioned.
The investigation by the European Central Bank has been poor, according to me.
A lack of independence was criticized by the man.
He said that he had raised the concerns with the European Central Bank.
I believe that cricket would be better served by a wholly independent regulatory arm that would ensure a fair and objective process.
The Regulatory Committee that oversaw the investigation was chaired by an independent chair and included several independent members of the committee.
An independent panel will hear the charges.
No one has been named by the ECB.
Several people, including ex-England captain Michael Vaughan and former Yorkshire players Matthew Hoggard and Tim Bresnan, have been charged.
The individuals have been approached by the television station.
The former Yorkshire and England captain said he had been accused of making racist comments to Rafiq and other players.
He denied making racist comments while at the county. He admitted to regretting some of the things he had said on social media.
Three other Yorkshire chairmen, Colin Graves, Steve Denison and Robin Smith, told the Telegraph of their concerns at the handling of the process, as well as being critical of the way the ECB has handled it.
