TV channels will soon begin beaming viewer advisories, resort to
sensitive scheduling of programmes during family viewing hours (between
4 am and 12 midnight) and mature audience hours (midnight to 4 am) and
adhere to a self-imposed content code. The code would vary depending on
the programme, targeted viewers, context and time-of-day with editorial
responsibility vested with broadcasters. There would be no preview or
pre-censorship of programmes by the council. The content code will be in
conjunction with relevant legislation and licence conditions of the
government and IBF would not try to
interpret
these laws in its code
and guidelines.
