Industry groups have developed codes of practice in consultation with the ACMA. We then monitor these codes and deal with unresolved complaints from viewers and listeners.
We include the code of practice in the register if:
- it provides appropriate community safeguards
- it was endorsed by a majority of providers in that industry sector
- members of the public have been given an adequate opportunity to comment
