Proceeding contribution from John Hayes (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 November 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Internet and Video Games.


Internet and Video Games

I can tell that the Minister is about to avail the Committee with an extensive list of the proposals that the Government have formulated in response to the Select Committee report, which I welcome, as have other Members. Will she consider adding to her list the imaginative suggestion of my hon. Friend the Member for Wantage (Mr. Vaizey) that we should have some figure—some national treasure like the green cross code man—to send a persuasive and attractive message to children? Given that Her Majesty the Queen—our principal national treasure—is not available, perhaps Bruce Forsyth might fit that role, as our own generation’s green cross man.
