Strange JamieJAMIE STRANGE (Labour): Thank you Madam Speaker—appreciate the opportunity to take a call on this bill. It was only a couple of days ago when my wife and I were having a conversation—Alastair Scott: Too much detail.JAMIE STRANGE: —around what our children were accessing. Yeah we do talk from time to time which is good. We were having a conversation around what our children were watching on TV and I believe they were watching Netflix. We were thinking back to when we were children—and I'm sure some people in the House will certainly be able to relate to this that basically TV was very regulated and there were set times when as children you would have programmes on TV for you. So for example weekdays between sort of 3.30 p.m. and 6 p.m. and those shows—Alastair Scott: Play School.JAMIE STRANGE: —yeah yeah Play School Fraggle Rock—were for children when they got home from school. The news was coming on at 6 p.m. so there was that set period of time and it was clearly regulated. People knew what they were watching. The other time was Saturday morning: What Now other shows like that. Look we could go on with a number of shows but I'll let other speakers maybe share their stories.But the key point that I want to make here is that we live in a completely different environment and this environment brought about by video streaming basically means two things. One is that children watch a show and then at the end of the show it goes straight on to the next show. So the ability to binge-watch is something that wasn't around previously. From a personal point of view I think that that has some challenges that ability to binge-watch for children and also for adults as well. Then the second point which this bill addresses is the aspect around clearly knowing what the content is and what the rating of that content is.There is a point that hasn't really been teased out and I would like to touch on that that this policy this piece of legislation was developed with the industry which is a fantastic way to develop legislation. It was developed with Netflix Lightbox NEON and others within the industry. The Office of Film and Literature Classification has been developing a self-rating framework with industry which will be ready to roll out once changes come into force in January 2021. The bill sets out a staggered approach to implementation which is necessary given the changes specified providers will need to make to their own systems in order to comply with the new requirements. So it's important that we note that the industry is on board and I'd like to acknowledge the industry and I'd like to acknowledge those groups that I mentioned—and no doubt there were others who were involved in that consultation—because it's a good model for legislation.So look just to summarise: the situation has changed and it's important that we move with the times. From a personal point of view I'd probably like to hark back to how it was but the reality is the situation has changed and so legislation like this is very important to provide clear communication both to the children and to the parents. I commend this bill to the House and I acknowledge the work that the Minister the Hon Tracey Martin has done on this. Thank you.
