Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps she is taking to stop access for those under 18-years of age to online porn sites.
This question was answered on 16th October 2017
Through the Digital Economy Act (2017), we have created the requirement for commercial providers of online pornography to have robust age verification controls to prevent under 18s accessing this material.
Our aim is to bring these powers into force within 12 months of the Act receiving Royal Assent (27 April 2017).
