MTRCB to assess the need for expanding regulations

Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) Chairperson Diorella Maria 'Lala' Sotto-Antonio said members of the Board would weigh the pros and cons of expanding the jurisdiction of the MTRCB to include online video streaming services under the body's regulatory powers.

'The matter will go through the process and will be discussed by the Board. We will assess the impact of legislators' call to expand the board's jurisdiction to cover online streaming platforms and applications and come up with a balanced and fair position,' Sotto-Antonio said.
