Part 9: Miscellaneous and General Pardons for certain abolished offences etc Section 176: Child sexual exploitation: streaming indecent images
Section 176 forms part of the law of England and Wales.
	Section 51 of the SOA defines "sexual exploitation" for the purpose of the offences at sections 48 to 50 of that Act, which respectively criminalise causing or inciting the sexual exploitation of a child, controlling a child in relation to sexual exploitation and arranging or facilitating the sexual exploitation of a child. The definition of "sexual exploitation" as given in section 51 of the SOA currently covers situations where indecent images of the child are recorded, and this section amends it to ensure that it also covers situations where such images are streamed (such as via the internet) or transmitted by some other technological means, such as CCTV.
