Legislation for a faster, more reliable and cost effective classification of content such as mobile and online games was passed through Federal Parliament today. The reforms deliver on the Coalition Government's commitment to have a modern National Classification Scheme to better handle ever-changing content in a dynamic media environment. The Classification (Publications, Films and Computer Games) Amendment (Classification Tools and Other Measures) Act 2014 (Classification Act) amends the Classification (Publications, Films and Computer Games) Act 1995 to implement a number of 'first tranche' reforms that were agreed to by Commonwealth, state and territory classification Ministers.
