As eight former News of the World<br />
journalists were this week charged with<br />
conspiracy to hack phones, an industry<br />
plan to stave of statutory regulation was<br />
threatening to unravel.<br />

told the Leveson Inquiry they would not<br />
sign up to the beefed-up self-regulation<br />
system proposed by body Pressbof.<br />
And in its closing submission to the<br />
inquiry, Northern and Shell said it would<br />
not agree to editors sitting on the new<br />
body and called for an independent body<br />
to oversee appointments.<br />

future of the Pressbof regulator plan was<br />
looking doubtful this week as Lord Justice<br />
