Creative Industries Minister Ed Vaizey, today welcomed the BBFC’s new Watch and Rate scheme, which provides classifications for straight to download content, as good for the industry and good for the public.
Speaking after seeing a demonstration of the new scheme, he said:
“The Watch and Rate scheme is a welcome addition to the work done by the BBFC. The internet has completely changed the way we access videos and music so it is good to see the BBFC adapting to meet the demands of the online world. Age ratings will help parents protect their children from inappropriate content and provide people with more confidence about the content they and their families are watching.”
