A case referring to a police officer accused of misconduct in public office and corruption has been sent to prosecutors
A seventh file relating to Scotland Yard's phone hacking inquiry has been sent to prosecutors.
The latest case refers to a police officer accused of misconduct in public office and corruption, said the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS).
The CPS has launched prosecutions relating to just one of the files so far. Two other files, including the announcement about Guardian journalist Amelia Hill, have been dropped.
The four cases still being considered for charging advice are:
One journalist in relation to alleged offences under the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (Ripa).
A police officer in relation to an allegation of misconduct in a public office.
A police officer in relation to alleged misconduct in a public office and other associated matters.
A police officer in relation to allegations of misconduct in public office and corruption.
