Motion Text

That this House notes with concern the study by the University of Missouri-Columbia demonstrating the clear link between the playing of violent video games and the greater propensity to commit aggressive acts; believes that the current safeguards preventing children from playing such games are inadequate; and calls on the Government to commission an independent study into the effects of the playing of violent video games on children.
