Laurence Kaye on Digital Media Law: Protection of children – New Legislation for Websites

From October this year, if you operate a website which has interactive features used by children, you will be required to vet new staff you employ to act as moderators on the website. This means that their names must be registered with the Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA), a public body which has been set up to prevent unsuitable people from working with children. From 2010 you will also be required to ensure all existing staff moderators are ISA-registered (even if they have already undergone a CRB check).
