Proceeding contribution from Lord Parkinson of Whitley Bay (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 16 May 2023. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Online Safety Bill.
Online Safety Bill
My initial response is, yes, I think so, but it is the role of Ofcom to look at whether those terms of service are enforced and to act on behalf of internet users. The noble Lord is right to point to the complexity of some marginal cases with which companies have to deal, but the whole framework of the Bill is to make sure that terms of service are being enforced. If they are not, people can turn to Ofcom.
