Asked

Innovation and Technology, with reference to the Government's commitment in March 2026 to achieve regulatory parity for pornography, what assessment she has made of the effectiveness of the role of a statutory auditor to help ensure online platforms proactively remove violent and abusive content that fails to meet British Board of Film Classification offline standards.

Reply

The Government announced the joint pornography team as part of the VAWG strategy in December. In March, it committed to produce a delivery plan setting out how the government can most effectively close the gap between the regulation of online and offline pornographic content. This will test audit and reporting functions and will consider which regulatory frameworks can best address the issue, noting the interactions with the BBFC’s existing remit and that of Ofcom under the Online Safety Act.

Reply

We remain absolutely committed to publishing a full trans-inclusive ban on conversion practices and we firmly intend to do so soon. The first parliamentary session was incredibly busy, we saw the Government bring forward landmark employment legislation and hate crime parity for LGBT+ people. This is a complex area and my officials and I are working at pace to finalise our approach to this important issue.
