Debate
Online Safety Act 2023 (Category 1, Category 2A and Category 2B Threshold Conditions) Regulations 2025Contribution
I must stress that the Secretary of State will keep these thresholds under review. Under Section 178 of the Act, he must review how effective the regulatory framework is two to five years after key provisions of the Act come into force. This will be published as a report and laid before Parliament. If there is evidence that the categories have become outdated, he will look at updating the thresholds where possible or reviewing the legislation where needed.
