Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport written question – answered at on 10 February 2020.
To ask the Minister of State, Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps his Department is taking to encourage parents to set up technical controls on their children's gaming devices to control their gaming and online use.
The government continues to work with industry and the age ratings bodies to help consumers learn about parental controls available on devices, including through initiatives such as AskAboutGames and PEGI advice about safe gaming.
We also welcomed the launch in January 2020 of the games industry’s Get Smart About P.L.A.Y. campaign encouraging parents to use parental controls and take an active role in their children’s gaming.
