The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) is the UK's regulator of advertising and seeks to ensure that all adverts, wherever they appear, are legal, decent, honest and truthful. Although the regulatory system is independent of government we have regular meetings with the ASA to discuss their work on a broad range of topics.
