Timebands, Parental Locks and Classifications
Do you use free-to-air TV classifications like G, PGR and AO, or timebands like the 8.30pm watershed, to help decide what you, or children in your care, watch?
The Broadcasting Standards Authority are considering whether some changes should be made to timebands and programme classifications on free-to-air television and want to hear what you think.
We will be holding a public meeting in Christchurch where you can get more information and ask questions. It will be on Wednesday 22 August at Christchurch Community House from 10.30am-12.30pm, please register on our website if you plan to attend.
You can also find out what is being considered and give your feedback through our 5-10-minute online survey.
Email us at info@bsa.govt.nz or visit the website for more information.
