answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/07/2021 answer text <p>Ofcom has been the national regulator for the video-sharing platform (VSP) regime since the Audiovisual Media Services Regulations came into force on 1 November 2020. For the first time, these regulations require UK-established VSPs, such as OnlyFans, to comply with new rules around protecting users from harmful content. Throughout the implementation of this novel regulation, Ofcom has been actively engaging with OnlyFans and other VSPs to ensure they understand their regulatory obligations and the steps they may need to take to ensure compliance.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>However, if Ofcom were to find a VSP provider in breach of the VSP requirements, it has the ability to investigate using its information gathering powers. Ofcom is also able to take robust enforcement action which can include imposing significant financial penalties and, in the most serious instances, issuing a direction to suspend or restrict a platform provider from providing a service.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 23/07/2021 12:03:08 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
