Motion A2, proposed by the noble Baroness, Lady Kidron, would amend the Government’s power to require age restrictions to be placed on all providers of internet services if a number of specific requirements are not adhered to. It also proposes changes to the national curriculum; new criminal offences for non-compliant services; a new legal right for a child to not be subject to harm; and a review of Ofcom’s enforcement powers. Once again, I thank the noble Baroness for her continued commitment to children’s safety and rights; the Government share her desire to ensure that children can have safe and age-appropriate experiences online.
