Digital Britain: UK to implement PEGI system for video games classification
Posted by Nigel in Childrens Digital Rights, Computer Law at June 17th, 2009
The government said that it will back the Pan European Game Information system to help consumers make informed choices about video games, removing responsibility from the BBFC.
The announcement is one of a raft of new measures that will be introduced in the wake of the Digital Britain report. The government gave its backing to the enhanced video game PEGI classification system following a four-month consultation period, in which it sought the views and opinions of experts and consumers on the best way of amending the current classification process.
