Alison Levitt QC, principal legal adviser to the Director of Public Prosecutions, announced the decision at 10am, that the former editor of the News of the World and the Sun will to be charged with five others, including her husband Charlie Brooks. 

The four others to be charged are Mrs Brooks's former PA Cheryl Carter, the company's head of security Mark Hanna, News International chauffeur Paul Edwards and security consultant Daryl Jorsling. 

The charges include conspiring to conceal material from Scotland Yard detectives, conspiring to remove seven boxes of material from the archive of News International and conspiring to conceal documents, computers and other electronic equipment from detectives. 

Ms Levitt said: "Applying the two-stage test in the Code for Crown Prosecutors I have concluded that in relation to all suspects except the seventh, there is sufficient evidence for there to be a realistic prospect of conviction. 

"I then considered the second stage of the test, and I have concluded that a prosecution is required in the public interest in relation to each of the other six.
