Leveson inquiry examines Cultural Secretary Jeremy Hunt's handling of the News Corporation/BSkyB deal.
In order to shed light on Hunt's conduct whilst handling the deal, his special adviser Adam Smith and lobbyist Fédéridc Michel will give their evidence.
Smith resigned last month from his position as Hunt's adviser after the e-mails showing that Hunt's office was passing information about the minister's BSkyB bid approval process to the company, were linked to him. Michel believed that the information he had obtained to his boss, James Murdoch, came directly from Hunt.
The beleaguered Culture Secretary denied any misconduct on his side in his relationship with News Corp. He maintained that he oversaw the Sky bid properly. Mr Hunt is also expected to appear at the inquiry.
Now the inquiry will look into the full extent of Hunt's involvement in the leak of information concerning the News Corporation/BSkyB deal.
