My question concerns promised legislation. An electronic media outlet proposes to reintroduce the broadcasting of sadistic and gratuitous acts of violence and what could be termed as pornography, which is deemed to shock people and condition them to an acceptance of that type of violence, including decapitation.

Would it be possible to deal with this in the context of the criminal justice (cybercrime) Bill? If not, perhaps other alternatives might be considered?
