The editor of the Sun and managing editor of the title's publisher, News Group Newspapers, will appear before the joint committee on privacy and injunctions on Thursday (2 February), to give evidence on the issue.

The committee was established by prime minister David Cameron in May last year and tasked with considering where improvements could be made to the relevant law.

Speaking on behalf of the government at the time, attorney general Dominic Grieve said the committee will examine "whether the current arrangements are working and to consider whether we might make any changes that would make things work better."

On Thursday, as well as hearing from editor of the Sun Dominic Mohan and group managing editor for NGN Richard Caseby, the committee will also take evidence from deputy legal manager of NGN Justin Walford.

Evidence will also be heard on the day from chairman of the Press Complaints Commission Lord Hunt, who appeared before the Leveson inquiry this week, where he outlined his proposals for reform of the PCC. The joint committee has already heard evidence from editors and executives from a number of national news outlets,

including the Mirror

, the Mail Online , the Telegraph, the Times Online, the Sunday Times, the Guardian and Private Eye .
