The Leveson Report makes several findings and recommendations regarding press regulation in the UK. It finds that some newspapers recklessly pursued sensational stories without regard for privacy or harm caused. It recommends establishing a new independent regulatory body for the press with statutory backing. This body would have powers to fine papers up to 1% of turnover for code violations and investigate serious breaches. The report is also critical of some police relationships with the press but does not find evidence of undue influence or corruption.
