139L. (1) Without prejudice to section 139K, in the case of a designated online service which incorporates advertisements or commercial

communications, the Commission shall ensure that an online safety code in respect of that service shall provide that risks of harm arising from the advertising of products to children on designated online services are minimised.

(2) Online safety codes as described under subsection (1) shall provide for restrictions, limitations, or outright banning of advertising to children

of—

(a) high salt and fat foods,

(b) alcohol, and

(c) gambling.
