Proceeding contribution from Lord Strathclyde (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 13 July 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Phone Hacking.

Phone Hacking

My Lords, I very much agree with my noble friend that we need to get to the bottom of all that has happened. That is the purpose of the inquiry, part of which will look at the current system of self-regulation under the PCC. In the same way that not every journalist was hacking, not all aspects of the PCC have been badly done. Many people have received help and support from the PCC. However, the issues that we are dealing with are of the highest seriousness. It is therefore right that we should set up this judicial inquiry.
