Part 3: Online pornography Section 25: Guidance to be published by regulator
This section requires the regulator to publish guidance on the types of age-verification arrangements it will treat as complying with section 14(1) and on the circumstances in which the regulator will treat services as those provided by "ancillary service providers". The regulator’s guidance must be laid before Parliament subject to the affirmative procedure for first exercise of the power and the negative procedure thereafter. The Secretary of State must also approve the guidance on ancillary service providers before it is laid before Parliament.
