Origin

2026 - Third part-session

In the draft recommendation, paragraph 4.2, replace the words after "neurological impact of" with the following words:

"pornography as well as on real-world correlation between consumption of pornography and violence against women, men and children."

Explanatory note

Important not to exclude co-operation and information sharing about pornography generally because, even when not ostensibly violent or extreme it may contribute to violence directly or though gradual and progressive addiction and recourse to more extreme content.
