Part of Deregulation Bill – in a Public Bill Committee at 4:30 pm on 13 March 2014.
I am somewhat confused by that. Clearly, even though an amateur video has not been classified in the context put by my hon. Friend the Member for Newcastle upon Tyne Central, it is designed for entertainment and is a video, although it has no classification. It is an amateur film, but it is a piece of art. It is hard to understand why sub-paragraph (6) is written in this way if there would be no need to have a licence for something like that. Why is it written to suggest that the key thing a video must have is a film classification or a licensing authority recommendation? If, in fact, anything is eligible, it is strange that the sub-paragraph was written in that way.
