Is there anything to stop the UK government censoring this report? I pose the question after it was delayed for publication by the government last year for after the general election. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EJK8K0ypl4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EJK8K0ypl4 It would take seven years to publish and would not seem conspiratory to suggest the delays have helped reduce public attention / demand for the report. Would it be possible to gag order certain reports or use governmental powers to achieve this?

No, it's already been done and part of the reason the report took so long. "But the main reason for the delay was the long tussle between the inquiry and the government over which classified material could be published alongside the report, or referred to in it." http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-36024725 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-36024725
