HC Deb 08 June 1978 vol 951 cc198-9W
23. Mr. Michael Marshall

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he considers that further legislation is necessary to protect the impressionable from the public display of pornographic material.

Mr. John

The existing law on offensive public displays falls within the terms of reference of the Committee on Obscenity and Film Censorship chaired by Professor Bernard Williams. The Government will consider, in the light of the committee's report, whether any further legislation would be appropriate.
