General principles followed

There are 2 main guiding principles:

• Works should be allowed to reach the widest audience that is appropriate for their theme and treatment
• That adults should, as far as possible, be free to choose what they see, provided that it remains within the law and is not potentially harmful

There are 3 main qualifications when applying these principles:

• whether the material is in conflict with the law, or has been created through the commission of a criminal offence
• whether the material may cause any harm
• whether the availability of the material is clearly unacceptable to broad public opinion
