EP states self-regulation is best for audiovisual industries


In short:
In a resolution adopted on 10 April, the MEPs demanded more self-regulation by the audiovisual industry to protect children from harmful online content.
 



Brief news:
In their Resolution the members of the European Parliament:

*    state children's welfare is primarily the responsibility of their legal guardians;
*    favour self-regulation by the industry and are concerned at recent moves to block access to certain websites;
*    call on the Member States to set up hotlines to handle complaints about illegal or harmful internet content.
*    call for reliable filter and rating systems for digital broadcasting;
*    urge the Commission to promote the creation of user-friendly content filter systems at affordable prices so as to support parental control.
