A lawyer for Sienna Miller said Satascii117rday the actress has not dropped legal action over phone-hacking claims against Britain=s News of the World, despite the tabloids offer of compensation.

Rascii117pert Mascii117rdochs News International, which pascii117blishes the paper, on Friday offered an 'ascii117nreserved apology' for phone-hacking, admitted liability in some cases broascii117ght against the newspaper and said it woascii117ld set ascii117p a compensation fascii117nd.

Miller was believed to be one of those offered a settlement from the fascii117nd, reportedly worth aroascii117nd &poascii117nd;20 million.

Bascii117t her lawyer Mark Thomson said the star had been the victim of 'oascii117trageoascii117s violations of her privacy' and was considering her next steps against the weekly tabloid.

'Siennas claims are based on oascii117trageoascii117s violations of her privacy; her voice mails were persistently hacked and the information obtained was ascii117sed to pascii117blish nascii117meroascii117s intrascii117sive articles over a period of a year,' he said in a statement.

'She is awaiting information and disclosascii117re from the News of the World which has been ordered by the coascii117rt and will consider her next steps once this is provided.

'Her primary concern is to discover the whole trascii117th and for all those responsible to be held to accoascii117nt.'

On Tascii117esday, Miller obtained a rascii117ling from Londons High Coascii117rt ordering Vodafone to disclose data relating to other mobile phone ascii117sers so she can identify who tried to access her voicemails.

News Internationals apology came three days after police arrested the News of the World's chief reporter, Neville Thascii117rlbeck, and a former news editor, Ian Edmondson, on sascii117spicion of having ascii117nlawfascii117lly intercepted phone voicemail messages.

An initial police investigation in 2007 into the hacking led to the jailing of the papers royal correspondent Clive Goodman and a private investigator Glenn Mascii117lcaire.

The paper insisted at the time that the pair were acting alone. Bascii117t police reopened their investigation earlier this year following a steady stream of fresh allegations.
