Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, with reference to the BBFC’s joint statement published on 16 September, whether she plans to meet with the Safer Screens Forum in November to discuss how the group can support her Department’s work related to its expanded online safety brief.

The Government welcomes the Safer Screens Forum’s contribution to the debate on the future of online safety. While Ministers are unable to attend the Safer Screens Forum’s next meeting in November, we are working closely with organisations striving to keep children safe online, including regular engagement with members of the Forum. We welcome their continued involvement as we develop our approach to online safety.
