I’m hoping they will get their acts together so that we don’t have to legislate, but we are keeping an eye on the situation and we will have a new communications bill in the next couple of years
Ed Vaizey, communications minister

The UK’s coalition government has announced it will ask internet service providers (ISPs) to help restrict access to pornographic web sites to protect children, reports LifeSiteNews.com.

Communications minister Ed Vaizey said he would meet with BT, Virgin Media and Talk Talk, Britain’s three largest internet providers, “in the near future” to discuss ideas.

“I’m hoping they will get their acts together so that we don’t have to legislate,” he told The Sunday Times, “but we are keeping an eye on the situation and we will have a new communications bill in the next couple of years.”

The plan is to have porn sites blocked and made available only on specific request.
