The Office of Film Censor is one which was created by the Censorship of Films Act 1923. The film censor is appointed to undertake the functions provided for in this, and subsequent legislation, including the Video Recordings Act 1989. The Deputy will appreciate that, as such, the film censor is independent in the exercise of his official functions and it would therefore be inappropriate for me to intervene in individual cases.
