1.1 (a) The Films and Publications Act 65 of 1996
regulates publications by making provision for a system
of classification. Name TWO possible classifications that
can be given to publications and indicate briefly when a
publication will be awarded each of these classifications.
(5) (b) What is “virtual child pornography”? What is the
legal position surrounding the issue of virtual child
pornography? (5)
1.1 (a) The Films and Publications Act 65 of 1996 provides for the classification of publications
in South Africa. Two possible classifications include:
1. Unrestricted: A publication is classified as unrestricted when it contains content that is
not harmful or inappropriate for public consumption. This classification is typically given
when the material does not depict excessive violence, explicit sexual content, or promote
hate speech.
2. Restricted: A publication is classified as restricted when it contains material that is
deemed inappropriate for certain age groups or specific audiences. This classification
might apply to publications that contain strong language, explicit sexual content, graphic
violence, or depictions of harmful behavior. For instance, a publication may be restricted
to adults (18 years and older) if it includes adult material such as pornography or extreme
violence.
1.1 (b) Virtual child pornography refers to images or visual representations that are computer-
generated or manipulated to depict children engaged in sexually explicit conduct, even though no
real children were involved in the creation of such material.
The legal position on virtual child pornography in South Africa is clear under the Films and
Publications Act. Virtual child pornography is treated as illegal, similar to real child
pornography. The production, distribution, and possession of such materials are prohibited, as
the law recognizes that these representations contribute to the exploitation of children and can
lead to actual harm or the normalization of sexual interest in children, regardless of whether a
real child was involved.
