Lord Leveson has said that only those relating to the one-time proposed takeover of the broadcaster BSkyB by News International's parent company, News Corp, must be passed on to the inquiry.
But Mr Bryant told the BBC News Channel it was important to investigate the "whole of the relationship" between the press, police and politicians.
He added: "Most ordinary members of the public would think it's material whether the prime minister was texting Rebekah Brooks every day or just once every two years.
