Meta: Standards
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of Meta's content reporting procedures.
Answered by Feryal Clark
Under the Online Safety Act all in scope services, including Meta, will be required to have systems and processes to enable users and other affected persons to report instances of the types of content the services have responsibility for. This includes illegal content, and, where relevant, content that is harmful to children (where services are likely to be accessed by children).
The Act also requires Ofcom to review the efficacy of content reporting and complaints mechanisms once the above duties have been implemented.
