Coming to a Free Society Near You: Regulation will be imposed on press as politicians reject self-regulation

10/09/13


The first rules on state regulation of the press for more than 300 years will be set out this week after politicians rejected the newspaper industry’s plans for self-regulation


Maria Miller, the Culture Secretary, told MPs that there will be a new system of press regulation backed by law.
She also signalled her frustration with Downing Street over the way new rules were agreed in a late-night deal with campaigners earlier this year.
