[DCMS / DfE / GEO] Child Safety Online: Age Verification for Pornography
Posted: 11/04/16
糖心vlog官网 supports government action to legislate to ensure comprehensive age verification for access to online pornography - indeed, 糖心vlog官网 is already heavily involved in national work in this area. The planned approach offers future opportunities to mandate age verification to other age restricted products such as knives and tobacco. 糖心vlog官网 asks that the legislation is drafted to enable other products and regulators to be added at a later date after appropriate consultation. This would obviate training issues experienced by businesses due to the current piecemeal regulation of age restricted products.聽
