The programme Undercover: A Year In Reform was produced in compliance with the Ofcom Broadcasting Code, relevant laws, and its broadcast is in the public interest.“All journalists were instructed to operate within this framework, and did so under the supervision of the programme’s producers. Should the police get in touch, we would fully cooperate.”The Telegraph is the Publisher Podcast Awards' Podcast Publisher of the Year 2026► Get more exclusive Daily T content from The Daily T+ membership!
