Australia currently has no R18+ rating for video games. This situation restricts freedom of choice, encourages piracy, and places adult material into the hands of children. Find out why.

You can help by spreading the word, writing to your Member of Parliament and making your voice heard for a fairer, safer ratings system. Find out more.

SCAG Meeting Postponed

The Standing Committee of Attorneys-General, who meet up to determine changes to Australia’s classification system, last met earlier this year to discuss the public consultation and after much deliberation, were seeking to hear both sides of the argument so that they could make a final decision.

That decision was going to be made at the meeting that was to be held at the end of this month. Unfortunately due to the upcoming Federal Election, this meeting has now been postponed until November 4-5.

    ahh you gotta love it
    they push it back, and push it back
    anything to avoid making a decision.

    if they spent more time doing advertisements telling parents to not buy r18+ games for kids, instead of “kids become serial killers if they play the games”

    they wouldn’t have a problem.
