Illustration for Films, Videos, and Publications Classification Act 1993

The Chief Censor checks each approved self-rating system every year. You need to know that these systems are used by some video on-demand providers. The provider must pay a fee for this annual check if a fee is required. The Chief Censor does this to make sure the systems are working correctly. You can find more information about the law that requires this check in the Films, Videos, and Publications Classification (Commercial Video on-Demand) Amendment Act 2020. This law helps keep the systems up to date.
