"We've been clear that we will take action to make sure children have a healthy relationship with mobile phones and social media. That's why we've launched a consultation looking at everything from age limits and safer design features to a social media ban - seeking views from experts, parents and young people to ensure we take the best approach, based on the latest evidence."
"The amendments made to the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill will allow us to act quickly on the outcomes of this consultation and help give young people the childhood they deserve."
"Amendments are being introduced into bills at very late stages in the House of Lords, and then you have this last-minute scramble and disagreement between the Lords and the Commons as to how to create legislation to deal."
The Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill seeks to improve child safety through legislated standards of care. Recent amendments proposed by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology raise ethical issues regarding content moderation and personal data sharing. These amendments were introduced after the third reading in the House of Lords, raising concerns about insufficient scrutiny. The government emphasizes the importance of ensuring children have a healthy relationship with technology and plans to consult on various measures to achieve this goal.
