New Pay-TV Codes of Practice

The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) have finally released the new codes of practice for subscription television and radio services and open narrowcast radio services.

R18+ [equivalent to the UK 18] rated programs remain banned on Subscription Broadcast Television. This covers such Pay-TV movie channels as Showtime, Showtime Greats, Movie One, Movie Extra, and Movie Greats. If a film has been rated R18+ by the OFLC, then it is going to screen as a censored MA15+ version on these channels.

So the R-rated The Hills Have Eyes remake that is due to premiere on Showtime on Friday 13th July will be censored. Will Showtime tell you this? Not a chance! If more people knew that they were paying money to view censored product then maybe Foxtel would push harder to have the law changed.

The rules imply that R18+ films may be shown once the Government agree to some sort of age validation technology.

X18+ [non violent hardcore] will remain prohibited regardless of age validation technology.
