| Publisher Description: The report Press Regulation: Where Are We Now? (HL 135) concludes that the new system of press regulation allowed for by the Royal Charter, and the arrangements put in place by the industry through the Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO), do not meet all the criteria of either the Leveson Report, or the Royal Charter. The Leveson Report was published on 29 November 2012 and recommended significant reforms to the regulation of the press. For almost a year there followed parliamentary debate, political wrangling, numerous press articles and commentary on the Report. At present no regulatory body exists for the press that complies with the strict requirements for independence from publishers set out by the Leveson Report. The recommended steps have not been taken to establish satisfactory whistleblowing arrangements for journalists to speak out, or to set up an arbitration system for early resolution. |
