LNB news: NCA announces new reporting regime for online child sexual abuse content

The National Crime Agency (NCA) has announced that, as part of the Online Safety Bill, the government has introduced a new legal requirement for UK companies to report child sexual abuse content on their platforms to the NCA

Lexis®Library update: The Bill outlines how the new system will replace the UK’s existing voluntary reporting regime with the NCA becoming the designated body for receiving and actioning reports from industry. Reports will need to meet a set of standards to ensure law enforcement receives the high quality information it needs to safeguard children and pursue offenders. The NCA is currently working in partnership with the Home Office and Ofcom to prepare for the introduction of the new system.
