Replace the current press self regulatory system with a statutory regulator

Petition Details

Against a background of fake news and poor quality reporting, the current press regulator lacks teeth and needs replacing with a regulator capable if dealing with these issues.

Additional Information

Establish a compulsory system of press regulation run independently of the press that has the ability to enforce its decisions and impose meaningful sanctions for those who break the rules.
