Subsection (2) provides that where a service provider is already using technology on a voluntary basis, but this is not sufficiently effective, OFCOM can still intervene and require a service provider to use a more effective technology, or the same technology in a more effective way.
	Subsections (3) and (4) specify that OFCOM can include in the notice a requirement for service providers to operate an effective procedure for users to challenge the removal of their content from the service.
	Subsection (5) states that if OFCOM decides that it is necessary and proportionate to issue a notice following representations from the company, the company must make proportionate alterations to the regulated service to ensure that the specified technology is effective when implemented.
	Subsections (6) and (7) set out the information that must be contained within a notice to use accredited technology and the period it may last for. OFCOM may specify the way in which the technology must be used on the service to effectively meet the aims of the notice and to meet the minimum standards of accuracy. This could include directions on how the technology should be implemented, including for example technical set up, human moderation requirements, or the image database to be used.
	Subsection (8) sets out the information that must be contained within a notice relating to the development or sourcing of technology. This includes agreed steps that the provider must take in order to meet the requirement to make best endeavours to develop or source technology, the period of time in which these steps must be taken. Subsection (9) provides information that OFCOM must consider when deciding the time period for this.
	Subsection (10) states that a notice may only impose requirements in relation to regulated services in the United Kingdom or regulated services that affect United Kingdom users.
	Subsections (12) and (13) explain that OFCOM are only able to require the use of technologies, including those which have been developed or sourced in response to a notice, that have been assessed by either OFCOM, or a third party appointed by OFCOM, as meeting the minimum standards of accuracy for detecting terrorism and/or CSEA content as set out by the Secretary of State.
