Cameron tells pornography websites to restrict access by children or face closure

PM says he will introduce legislation that could see websites shut down if they fail to bring in effective age-restricted controls

David Cameron is to give pornography websites one last chance to produce an effective voluntary scheme for age-restricted controls on their sites or he will introduce legislation that could see them shut down.

At the election the then culture secretary, Sajid Javid, said the party would act to ensure under-18s were locked out of adult content and the Conservative election Facebook page in April promised legislation to achieve this.
