Section 9(1) requires a media service provider to sort every programme it intends to publish, other than a fixed list of exceptions such as news, political information, sports, and trailer programmes, into one of the age-rating categories the section defines before it is broadcast; Section 9(2) puts a programme viewable regardless of age into category I. Section 11(1) requires an on-demand audiovisual media service to publish a programme only in the manner its category permits, and Section 11(1a) requires the age-rating category to be displayed prominently when a programme is presented in the service's catalogue or before the user views it.
Section 9's current text was substituted by Act LXXIX of 2021, Section 9, and further modified by Act LXI of 2022, Section 27; Section 11(1a)-(1b) was inserted by Act LXI of 2022, Section 23. The stored source does not carry a promulgation date for either amending act.
