Royal Charter on self-regulation of the press

The Royal Charter on self-regulation of the press is a United Kingdom royal charter approved in 2013. The Queen set her seal on the document at a meeting of the Privy Council after the failure of two High Court actions by Pressbof to prevent it.[1] The operation of the Charter comes under two Acts of Parliament, the Crime and Courts Act 2013 and the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013.[2]

The Charter creates the Press Recognition Panel (PRP) as a corporation to carry out activities relating to the recognition of press regulators.[3] In a last-minute change the government decided that the system would not come into effect until a year after the PRP was established, taking the process beyond the 2015 general election.[4]

In October 2016 IMPRESS became the UK's first approved press regulator after its application for recognition under the Royal Charter was granted.[5]
