A Conservative government would not seek to change the current system of press regulation, Culture Secretary Sajid Javid has said.

Labour, the Liberal Democrats and the Green Party all said in their election manifestos that the press should be forced to sign up for Leveson-compliant regulation.

The vast majority of newspaper and magazine publishers are currently signed up the Independent Press Standards Organisation, which replaced the Press Complaints Commission in September last year. The Guardian, Independent titles, Evening Standard and Financial Times have not signed up to IPSO.
