Member’s explanatory statement

This technical amendment is consequential on the other changes to clause 20 (arising from the new duties in clauses 23, 25 and 29 which are imposed on providers of Category 2A services only - see the amendments in the Minister’s name to those clauses below).

66B: Clause 20, page 23, line 20, at end insert “(2) to (8)”

Member’s explanatory statement

This amendment is consequential on the amendments in the Minister’s name to clause 25 below (because the new duty to summarise children’s risk assessments in a publicly available statement is only imposed on providers of Category 2A services).

“(3A) All providers of regulated search services that are Category 2A services must comply with the following duties in relation to each such service which they provide—

(b) the duty about children’s risk assessments set out in section 25(8A), and

(c) the duty about record-keeping set out in section 29(8A).”

Member’s explanatory statement

This amendment ensures that the new duties set out in the amendments in the Minister’s name to clauses 23, 25 and 29 below (duties to summarise risk assessments in a publicly available statement and to supply records of risk assessments to OFCOM) are imposed on providers of Category 2A services only.

66D: Clause 20, page 23, line 21, at end insert—

“(5) For the meaning of “Category 2A service”, see section 86 (register of categories of services).”
