Internet and mobile device usage have become a centralfeature in children’s lives. Taking into account the growing availability of prohibited content suchas pornography to children, it seems appropriate to launch certain measures in order to restrictkids’ access to this.

In particular, whether age verification controlsshould be placed on all forms of legal pornography (‘sex works’) online that would receive a BritishBoard of Film Classification rating of 18 or R18 or not; should this measure be implemented forwebsites containing still and moving images of pornography and which methods should be usedin order to conduct age verification online.
