I note my hon. Friend’s comments, but I repeat that I will not be making any comments on the merits or otherwise of the bid.
Ms Angela Eagle (Wallasey) (Lab)
The Secretary of State is quite properly saying that she will not comment on the decision itself, but that does not mean that she cannot answer some of the questions that are being put to her today, and she should not hide behind that. So I ask her again: has she read the 2012 Ofcom report on the conduct of James Murdoch—yes or no?
Karen Bradley
I am sorry to disappoint the hon. Lady, but I will not be making any comments on the process, its merits or otherwise.
