<p>Prosecutors will expand their review of evidence gathered during the phone hacking inquiry to include fresh claims swirling around the scandal, the Director of Public Prosecutions has said.</p>
<p>Keir Starmer said any evidence from &#8220;recent or new substantive allegations&#8221; will be assessed by a senior barrister as part of an ongoing inquiry into material already held by Scotland Yard.</p>
<p>The decision means officials at the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) could advise the Met to reopen the inquiry into fresh claims that the mobile phones of high-profile individuals were hacked.</p>
<p>The review, overseen by Alison Levitt QC, may yet also lead to lawyers deciding that enough evidence already exists to bring charges against others implicated in the scandal.</p>
<p>In a statement, Mr Starmer said he has asked Ms Levitt to take a &#8220;robust approach&#8221; to her review of hundreds of documents and subsequent advice to senior police officers or prosecutors.</p>
