Part 6: Miscellaneous Section 92: Digital additional services: seriously harmful extrinsic material
Subsection (1) of new section 24A of the Broadcasting Act 1996 places a duty on Ofcom to take appropriate measures to protect viewers from potentially seriously harmful extrinsic material that is accessible through Digital Television Additional Services (DTAS). Ofcom possesses an existing power in section 4 of the Broadcasting Act 1996 to impose conditions in broadcast licences it considers appropriate having regard to its duties under broadcasting legislation. Ofcom can use that power further to this duty.
	Subsection (2) defines "seriously harmful extrinsic material".
