answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/11/2022 answer text <p>The strongest protections in the Online Safety Bill are to keep children safe online. To achieve this, the Bill will require all companies that are in scope to take robust steps to protect children from illegal content and activity on their services. In addition, services which are likely to be accessed by children will be required to provide safety measures for child users to protect them from inappropriate and harmful content or activity, such as pornography and bullying. If they fail to do so, they will be subject to tough enforcement action by the regulator, Ofcom.</p> answering member printed Lord Parkinson of Whitley Bay question first answered 02/11/2022 15:33:21 answering member 4728 label Biography information for Lord Parkinson of Whitley Bay
