Anyway, I just asked in September to share their hopes for the future, and that's what he wrote:

Rarely, if ever, in the public inquiry was quite a knowledge gap between researchers and research subjects.

Research Leveson spent enormous amounts of time and public money - to establish the facts which were perfectly obvious to anyone with a rudimentary knowledge of how newspapers work.

is reasonable, therefore, that in industry there is some concern about whether the new regulatory system proposed by the research process - and to provide more protection of the public - provide sufficient the realities of the operation of a free and independent press in a business environment increasingly hostile.

was clear from the exchange between David Cameron and Lord Justice Leveson last week, while men know what they want, I'm not sure how.


Lord Justice Leveson
said he did not intend to create a framework that has provided more work for lawyers (the irony that, as he gave the massed ranks of Representatives legal have not been lost) and we can assume that his mind leans toward more effective self-regulation.



His main challenge will be to try to find one size fits all remedy. Our national press is not homogeneous: it is a beast of many heads, and commercial pressures and publishers are very different imperatives of the market at one end to another. Whatever the new regulations, this should be recognized.

And any new organization emerges, must be guided by people who have knowledge and clear understanding of the specific requirements of running a modern newspaper.

a new code of conduct will be presented, but in order to ensure that all newspapers are going online, and give the public some confidence that it is only self-regulation by interest, there will be some sort of legal basis.

It is an attraction, for example in the VAT collection in a newspaper that refuses to comply with the new code. And, trying to find a balance between the carrot and stick, then maybe we can start looking at our libel laws.

the memory of a journalist in the 1960s is part of a group of journalists who went door to the intensification of the occupants of a house in London.

not remember why, but what I can remember. Escape was when the words "complaint with the Press Council" were spoken, I doubt that increased the threat of the press complaints commission would do that today - and this is part of the problem

The commission did not influence that is. necessary for an organization that above all there is to protect the public interest. He did not powers of investigation or application. It is seen by the public not only as a defender of freedom of expression but also an apology for certain excesses. Nobody on the committee know or suspect that your piracy in these years?

The CCP should be replaced by a credible regulator armed with new powers that the commission lacked. It should be clearly independent and completely fearless.

At the same time, we recognize a crucial difference between self-enforcement institutions they supervise, such as lawyers. Journalism is a profession. Everyone can be a journalist and punishment can not be the withdrawal of a certificate to practice. The sanction must be a penalty certainly on paper, and probably the journalist too.

On basis of the new system should have a code of practice accepted by the press itself. What happens if a media group said it is not willing to accept? At this point, there should be a requirement the law to enforce adherence.

The CCP has failed miserably as a regulator - a self-service organization for owners of the next over to a gentleman's club of a regulator with teeth.

Journalists were denied a seat at the table and the outpouring of independent representatives was insufficient to dilute the interests and properly defend the rights of readers.

Unlike Ofcom, which has denied claims by third parties are the papers of a traffic intolerance hands-free, while groups such as asylum seekers and disabled evil to redress real.

The National Union of Journalists want a truly independent body, free press and journalistic standards in his heart. For healthy teeth, must be based on the law, with a mediator to mediate release to the public.

an apex body to hear appeals of the Ombudsman and manage a code of ethics - the NUJ code of conduct would be a start - and decide on sanctions, including fines and Compensation newspapers that do not meet the code.

respect a conscience clause for journalists. Leveson can be inspired by the Irish Council of the press - which plays a role in the NUJ and other civic groups. This is an opportunity for real reform that we can not have been wasted.

think Leveson should seek to build on what the CCP has generally done well (been an effective complaints service and pre-publication), but some crucial events. First, editors and owners should properly regulate in a transparent in their internal audit process of decision making.
