Proceeding contribution from Lord Inglewood (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 20 July 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Public Confidence in the Media and the Police.

Public Confidence in the Media and the Police

My Lords, I support the Prime Minister’s Statement which my noble friend the Leader of the House repeated, but in it he pointed out that the Prime Minister had said: "““We have consulted with Lord Justice Leveson himself, the Opposition, the Chairs of the relevant Select Committees and the devolved administrations””," about the terms of reference of the inquiry. I am privileged to speak as the Chairman of the Communications Committee in this House. We were not consulted—does my noble friend know why?
