Peers to vote on government bid to delay children's social media restrictions by up to three years

Peers to vote on government bid to delay children's social media restrictions by up to three years

Peers will vote Monday on a government amendment that could delay action on children's social media access for up to three years, sparking backlash from campaigners. The amendment to the children's wellbeing and schools bill would allow ministers to wait before introducing restrictions, potentially limiting action to parental controls rather than sweeping measures. Tory peer John Nash has tabled an alternative amendment forcing the government to raise the minimum age for social media to 16 within 12 months, which peers have already backed three times by a 126-vote margin. With parliament prorogation expected next week, Monday's vote is the last opportunity to force the issue.
