I move amendment No. 9:

In page 22, after line 34, to insert the following:“(3) Where the holder of parental responsibility over a child gives consent in relation to an offer of information society services directly to a child, the data controller shall make reasonable efforts to verify such consent.

(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), a data controller may obtain verifiable consent from the holder of parental responsibility through appropriate methods, including by electronic means. Such methods must be sufficient to ensure and/or verify that the person providing consent has parental responsibility over the child concerned.”.
