The Video Recordings Act 1984 (Exempted Video Works) Regulations 2014
These Regulations amend the Video Recordings Act 1984 (“the Act”). The Act provides for labelling and certification requirements in respect of the supply of video works. By section 2(1) of the Act, a video work (other than a video game) is exempt from these requirements if, taken as a whole, it is designed to inform, educate or instruct, or is concerned with sport, religion or music. This exemption is subject to sections 2(2) and (3) of the Act, which set out certain cases in which such a video work is not an exempted work even if it otherwise falls within section 2(1) of the Act.
