Individuals who commit racist offences should face the full force of the law and we already have robust legislation in place to deal with online hate crime.</p><p> </p><p>While companies have taken some positive steps, more needs to be done to tackle online harms, including hate crime. The upcoming Online Safety regulatory framework will put in place measures to tackle illegal and legal but harmful abuse, including racist abuse. If major platforms do not meet their own standards to keep people safe and address abuse quickly and effectively, they could face enforcement action. There is no reason for companies to wait until the regime is fully running to take action against this abhorrent abuse, and we will continue to press them to do so.</p><p> </p><p>The police are reviewing offending material and will work with the relevant social media companies to identify account holders and progress their investigations.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 19/07/2021 16:21:08 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
