| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Just very roughly, you have a ton of content on YouTube. You talked about how many hundreds of hours there are, a thousand hours per minute coming on, and there is global content available on the platform, right? So I am guessing—I may be wrong and you can correct me—that the BBC content is an interesting sideshow for …” | 167 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “I was asking you about whether it is on YouTube Kids or the normal platform, and I have asked you a couple of times now, specifically, about things that are branded or marked as Made for Kids.” | 37 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Okay, so here is the short circuit. What proportion of Made for Kids content is from what you have just described as greenlisted partners?” | 24 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Roughly: is it virtually all of it or is it a little bit of it?” | 15 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Come on. This is an inquiry about children’s television. You are the largest provider in the world of that service. We are asking how much of the stuff that you brand as content Made for Kids is from brands, companies or producers who we, the people in the street, and you, through your greenlisting process, would say i…” | 72 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Okay, so we are back to my original question before you started talking about how much is greenlisted. My question is does somebody have to watched that programme. So if I see a thing that says Made for Kids on YouTube, do I know that either somebody at the BBC or Channel 5 or whatever, or somebody at YouTube, has watc…” | 76 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Okay. Thank you.” | 3 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “That is all I needed to know. So basically, it is an automated system, presumably, which looks for bad content.” | 20 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Okay, thank you.” | 3 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “It is off by default, not disabled?” | 7 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Thank you very much. Just on this thing about the system inferring the age of the child. It is true, though, is it not, that there are literally hundreds of thousands of children in this country who have an apparent digital age higher than their actual age? We know that from Ofcom research and other research. Can I ask…” | 102 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Okay. You think there is nobody under 13 watching YouTube regular?” | 11 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “So your clear policy is that there should be literally nobody—no child under the age of 13—using regular YouTube?” | 19 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Thank you.” | 2 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “I am sure you do read the data that you see from, for example, the Ofcom research. The BBC has some research that suggests really quite large numbers of children under that age are watching YouTube.” | 36 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Does that perturb you in any way?” | 7 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “I am coming to that.” | 5 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “No, if you are 13 or over, I am trying to establish whether there is a significant proportion of children for whom parents have set some controls. I will ask you about your shorts; in fact, you might as well answer that at the same time. You talked already about the timer for the shorts feed. How many people have actua…” | 63 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “First, you would need to know there is distinction between shorts and everything else. Then you would need to know that Google and YouTube are the same company. Then you would need to be taking a break from setting TikTok and Instagram controls to worry about YouTube. Then you would need to work out how you do it. Then…” | 103 |
| 10 Mar 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Okay. I do not want to be too pushy here, but I do not think I have heard anybody come up with a number or a rough proportion—is it a tiny proportion? We know it is not most, right?” | 39 |
