Online Safety Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lucy Powell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 19 April 2022. It occurred during Debate on bills on Online Safety Bill.

I very much agree with my hon. Friend, and I will come on to talk about that shortly.

The Online Safety Bill is an important step towards strong, independent regulation. We welcome the Bill’s overall aim: the duty of care framework based on the work of the Carnegie Trust. I agree with the Secretary of State that the safety of children should be at the heart of this regulation. The Government have rightly now included fraud, online pornography and cyber-flashing in the new draft of the Bill, although they should have been in scope all along.
