Olswang has been instructed by News International to draw up a new code of practice for the company amid new revelations in the News of the World (NoW) phone-hacking scandal.
The NoW is facing renewed scrutiny this week amid allegations that Glenn Mulcaire, a private investigator working for the paper, hacked into the mobile phone of murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler in 2002. The Guardian has claimed that messages were subsequently deleted from the phone.
