Leveson Inquiry

Proceeding contribution from Julian Lewis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 3 December 2012. It occurred during Debate on Leveson Inquiry.

So far as the breaches of the criminal law are concerned, will my hon. Friend confirm that, if a statutorily based supervisory body were to discover that the criminal law had been broken—through phone hacking, for example—that would become a matter for the police anyway as soon as it was discovered and that, terrible though the suffering of the Dowlers was, their case is, in a sense, really rather irrelevant to the supervisory body that we ought to have?
