Jane Mulcahy KC is currently leading an external review of the facts after Schofield’s departure which is expected to be completed in September.
Speaking at the Edinburgh TV Festival, ITV’s managing director Kevin Lygo said: “She has been talking to everybody involved, they take your phone and look at every single text you’ve ever sent, email, WhatsApp.
ITV chief executive Dame Carolyn McCall told MPs that “we were repeatedly told nothing was happening” and both men denied it “both formally and informally”.“I don’t think we’ve got anything to hide and if we can adapt and change our processes to make it better, then we should do so on a continuing basis.”
Asked whether he would consider a cross-broadcaster initiative to tackle these type of issues, Lygo said he feels these projects can become complicated and he thinks ITV is leading the way with duty-of-care policies due to having experience with it from shows like Love Island. “Ten years ago this wasn’t even on the agenda, so I think it’s a good thing that we’re all assessing the right way to treat people and a lot of it is common sense and decency,” he added.
Asked whether ITV would also launch an inquiry into Wootton, Lygo said: “He doesn’t work for us any more, so that makes it complicated. We haven’t had any complaints, to my knowledge, about it.
