Rupert Murdoch has declared his "unwavering support" for The Sun's journalists today and announced he is lifting the suspensions of all arrested staff.
The Chief Executive of News Corportation also confirmed he will begin publishing the tabloid seven days a week by launching a new paper called The Sun on Sunday "very soon".
The Sun has been rocked by the arrests of 10 current and former senior reporters and executives since November over alleged corrupt payments to public officials.
In an email to staff, Mr Murdoch explained why he formed an internal committee to trawl through 300 million emails, expense accounts and notebooks in the hunt for signs of illegality, which led to the arrests.
The email said: "Our independently chaired Management & Standards Committee, which operates outside of News International, has been instructed to cooperate with the police.
"We will turn over every piece of evidence we find - not just because we are obligated to but because it is the right thing to do."
The formation of the MSC was part of Mr Murdoch's attempt to get back on top in Britain after he had to close the Sun's sister title, the News of the World, last year over a phone hacking scandal.
But such close co-operation with the police has infuriated staff and sparked talk of a witch-hunt amongst journalists and their sources by a media owner who used to champion their work.
In the most recent arrests, five senior Sun journalists were held along with a police officer and other public officials, prompting staff and lawyers to complain that the details of anonymous sources were being handed over to the police.
Mr Murdoch told staff that he would be staying in London for the "next several weeks".
