<p>In response to the Online Harms White Paper, the Government ran a consultation
from 8 April 2019 to 1 July 2019 which received over 2,400 responses from a wide range
of stakeholders and organisations, including members of the public. The Government
has also undertaken extensive engagement over the last 12 months with representatives
from industry which, alongside the consultation responses, has been reflected in the
Online Harms White Paper initial response published on 12 February 2020. Overall,
respondents and stakeholders agreed that, whilst funding should primarily be from
industry, the ultimate funding structure for the Online Harms regulator should be
proportionate and practical.The Government is currently carrying out extensive analysis
on potential funding options. Full details of the funding mechanism for the Online
Harms regulatory regime will be set out in due course.</p>
