One of the MPs on the committee, Therese Coffey, said the evidenceopened upa new line of inquiry.
"There are(There's口误) very strong allegations made by Mr Goodman that hacking was discussed daily at editorial meetings. That's the first time that's been revealed publicly. And although of course Mr Goodman was sent to prison for certain things and will have to allow the police to do full inquiry on this, clearly opens up a brand-new line of questioning, which is why we've agreed to write to some people but also to call some people to the committee in September."
