The UK's proposed Online Safety legislation will introduce a duty of care for services which allow sharing of user-generated content to protect their users from harm. The variety of services which may be subject to the new laws is potentially wide.

The draft was published on 12 May so UGC services can now start to prepare with more confidence and develop their public policy responses.

Please join our team of experts for a virtual roundtable discussion on the scope and impact of the Bill and the practicalities of preparing for it.

We hope you can join us.
