Board may assess likely classification of film or computer game
33 Board may assess likely classification of film or computer game
This section applies if an application has been made under section 32 for the assessment of the likely classification of an unclassified film or an unclassified computer game.
The Board may assess the classification that, in the opinion of the Board, the film or computer game would be likely to have if the film or computer game were classified, having regard to the material and information available to the Board when making the assessment.
The Board may refuse to assess the likely classification of the film or computer game if the Board considers that the material and information available to the Board is insufficient (whether or not the Board has made a request under subsection (4)).
The Board may request the applicant to give to the Board, within the period specified in the request, further information for the purpose of enabling the Board to deal with the application.
The Board may decline to deal with the application, or decline to further deal with the application, until the information is given to the Board in accordance with the request.
To avoid doubt, this section does not require the Board to obtain further information under subsection (4) for the purposes of the Board’s assessment.
An assessment made under subsection (2) is not a legislative instrument.
