Media: Press Sustainability

Debate between Lord Keen of Elie and Lord Razzall

Thursday 22nd March 2018 Lords Chamber

[Lord Keen of Elie]

My Lords, we fully recognise and accept the importance of such developments and, indeed, it is one means by which we can address the insidious development of fake news.

[Lord Razzall (LD)]

I am sure that the noble and learned Lord is aware that it is five years since Parliament endorsed the Leveson royal charter. It is some progress to have the sustainability review, but is he confident that press regulation is really working?

[Lord Keen of Elie]

Yes.
