Timing: Lord Justice Leveson was unable to refer to bombshell report 
Tom Harper 
20 May 2013 
The Met "gagged" the Leveson Inquiry from revealing intelligence that a very senior former police officer passed on sensitive information to the News of the World, the Standard reveals today. 
The force claimed a "public interest immunity certificate" to ban the disclosure of a report that alleged the officer was obtaining highly confidential information on decisions taken by Lord Blair when he was Commissioner. 
The classified document, which the Met withheld from the Leveson Inquiry until after it could have been usefully raised in the public hearings, suggested the officer — who is not named for legal reasons — passed the leak on to the tabloid for money. 
When it was finally passed to the inquiry, Scotland Yard claimed "public interest immunity" which prevented Lord Justice Leveson from referring to it in public or considering it for the conclusions in his landmark report into inappropriate relationships between the press and police  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.190.38.46 (talk) 04:26, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

message: He is often called "Lord Stevens" and sometimes "Sir Stevens" - can references explaining this (I think Barons can also be called Lord and Sir) be placed in the article, please. Thanks. Carcharoth 15:48, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I feenl the article is very thin on Steven's career as Chief Constable of the Met.  This is a high profile job,and one would hope to find more here about his influence on the force and his influence on his senior officer colleagues in operational term, and in terms of the actual business of policing the metropolis.  While he had many admirers as Chief Constable it is well known that he was a difficult man to work for and with, and he had his critics and detractors. Geoff Powers (talk) 13:05, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
