Schedule 4: Codes of practice under section 41: principles, objectives, content Section 47: Review of codes of practice
This section makes provision for review of codes of practice by OFCOM. Subsection (1) requires OFCOM to keep all published codes of practice under review.
	Subsection (2) gives the Secretary of State the power to require OFCOM to review a code of practice on terrorism or CSEA if the Secretary of State deems it necessary for reasons of national security or public safety; and requires the Secretary of State to notify OFCOM of which category the reasons fall into. OFCOM must then carry out a review and either prepare a draft of amendments to the code of practice if they consider that changes are required or, if not, submit a statement to the Secretary of State explaining the reasons for that conclusion.
	OFCOM must publish the statement submitted to the Secretary of State as soon as is reasonably practicable after a period of 45 days has elapsed, if the Secretary of State has not given a direction to make modifications under section 44(5).
	Subsection (6) allows the Secretary of State to make representations to OFCOM regarding the removal or obscuring of information in the statement in the interests of national security, public safety, or relations with the government of a country outside the United Kingdom
