The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, if she will make it her policy to commission a follow-up to the Leveson report.

Answered by Stephanie Peacock

The Government has clearly laid out its priorities in the manifesto and in the King’s speech, and the second part of Leveson is not among them. This Government has no current plans for further legislation in this area.
