Proceeding contribution from Madeleine Moon (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 13 July 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Phone Hacking.


Phone Hacking

In the fire storm that has hit the country, thousands of families have been thrown back to the trauma of a loved one's death. Will the Prime Minister ensure that he has conversations with the Press Complaints Commission so that it can start talking to the editors of national newspapers about not regurgitating stories that will increase that trauma to families? Can we also ensure that when police officers approach families, if they need to tell them that their phone calls have been hacked, they provide them with help and guidance as well as information about desist notices so that those families' trauma can be reduced rather than their grief being added to?
