(10) Certain widely recognised nutritional guidelines exist at national and international level, such as the WHO Regional Office for Europe's nutrient profile model, in order to differentiate foods on the basis of their nutritional composition in the context of foods television advertising to children. Member States should be encouraged to ensure that self-and co-regulatory codes of conduct, such as the ones developed in the framework of the Commission's Platform for Action on Diet, Physical Activity and Health, are used to effectively reduce the exposure of children and minors to audiovisual commercial communications regarding foods and beverages that are high in salt, sugars or fat or that otherwise do not fit these national or international nutritional guidelines.

Recital 12

(12) In order to ~~remove~~ensure a high level of consumer protection and public health while removing barriers to the free circulation of cross-border services within the Union, it is necessary to ensure the effectiveness of self- and co-regulatory measures ~~aiming, in particular, at protecting consumers or public health~~. Effective monitoring and reporting mechanisms should be put in place. When well enforced and monitored, codes of conduct at Union level ~~might b~~are a good means of ensuring a ~~more~~ coherent and effective approach. They should be of assistance to the national regulatory authorities in the drafting of their national codes of conduct and help improve coherence in implementing Directive 2010/13/EU.

(2a) The following article is inserted: 'Article 1a 1. Without prejudice to Articles 14 and 15 of Directive 2000/31/EC, Member States shall ensure that media service providers and video-sharing platform providers under their jurisdiction take appropriate, effective and efficient measures to: (a) protect all citizens from programmes and user-generated videos containing incitement to violence or hatred directed against a group of individuals or a member of such a group defined by reference to sex, racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation, descent or national origin; (b) protect all citizens from programmes and user-generated videos containing incitement to commit terrorist acts and justifying terrorism; (c) protect all citizens from programmes and user-generated videos containing intentional and continuous persecution directed against an individual or a group of individuals; (d) protect minors from programmes or user-generated videos which may impair their physical, mental or moral development. Such content shall, in any case, only be made available in such a way as to ensure that minors will not normally hear or see it. The most harmful content, such as gratuitous violence or pornography, shall not be included in television broadcasts by broadcasters and, in the case of on-demand media services, shall be subject to the strictest measures, such as encryption and effective parental controls. Such measures shall include selecting the time of their availability, age verification tools or other technical measures, including parental control tools by default. 2. What constitutes an appropriate measure for the purposes of paragraph 1 shall be determined in light of the nature of the content in question, shall be proportionate to the potential harm it may cause, the characteristics of the category of persons to be protected as well as the rights and legitimate interests at stake, including those of the providers and the users having created and/or uploaded the content as well as the public interest and respect communicative freedoms. Providers shall provide sufficient information to viewers about such content, preferably using a system of descriptors indicating the nature of the content. 3. Member States shall ensure that complaint and redress mechanisms are available for the settlement of disputes between recipients of a service and media service providers or video-sharing platform providers relating to the application of the appropriate measures referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2. Such complaint and redress mechanisms shall ensure the effective and permanent removal of contents referred to in paragraph 1. 4. For the purposes of the implementation of the measures referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2, Member States shall encourage co-regulation. Member States shall establish the necessary mechanisms to assess the appropriateness of the measures referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3 of this Article. Member States shall entrust this task to the bodies designated in accordance with Article 30. In case co-regulation or self-regulation prove to be ineffective, national regulatory bodies are entitled to exercise their effective powers.'
