Leveson inquiry: Monday's key points

• Fife NHS board has apologised after details of Gordon Brown's son's cystic fibrosis were "most likely" leaked by a member of staff without authorisation. • Brown denied giving the Sun permission to run a front-page story about his son's illness and said Rebekah Brooks presented him with a "fait accompli". • Brown denied saying he would declare war on News Corporation in a phone call with Rupert Murdoch in 2009. • He denied his former special advisers Charlie Whelan and Damian McBride briefed against government colleagues. • Brown told he inquiry he has passed to police a recording of Sunday Times reporters allegedly discussing "illegal [newsgathering] techniques". • News International's "commercial interests" took over under James Murdoch, Brown claimed. • He criticised the Sun for its "sensationalised" coverage of the Labour government's policy on the Afghan conflict. • George Osborne defended the decision to hire Andy Coulson as Conservative director of communications in 2007 and claimed his News International links were not relevant. • Osborne said he was satisfied with Coulson's "single rogue reporter" assurances on News of the World phone hacking. • Osborne: he and David Cameron believed News Corporation's BSkyB bid was "politically inconvenient", but said he did not have strong views about the aborted £8bn bid. • Cabinet secretary Jeremy Heywood suggested handing responsibility for BSkyB bid to Jeremy Hunt after Vince Cable's "war on Murdoch" comment, according to Osborne.
