I move amendment No. 86:

In page 112, between lines 2 and 3, to insert the following:

“Application to High Court to direct cessation of advertising activity

142. (1) The Authority may, where it has reasonable grounds for believing that the advertising of relevant content by a relevant service provider contravenes an obligation imposed on a licensee by or under this Chapter, apply to the High Court for an order directing the relevant service provider to cease such advertising.

(2) An application under subsection (1) shall be made on notice to the relevant service provider and licensee concerned.

(3) On the hearing of an application under subsection (1), the High Court may, where it is satisfied that the advertising concerned contravenes an obligation imposed on a licensee by or under this Chapter, make an order directing the relevant service provider to cease such advertising.

(4) In this section, “relevant service provider” means an audio visual on-demand media service, an on-demand sound service, a social media service, a video-sharing platform service or a broadcaster.”.
