Video blunder lets porn be sold legally to kids | Oddly Enough | Reuters: "LONDON (Reuters) - Retailers who sell children violent or pornographic videos will be immune from prosecution for the next three months after the discovery of a government blunder 25 years ago.
Britain should have notified the European Commission of the existence of the Video Recordings Act 1984 (VRA) -- which regulated the industry -- but failed to do so.
'Unfortunately, the discovery of this omission means that, a quarter of a century later, the VRA is no longer enforceable against individuals in United Kingdom courts,' said Barbara Follett, Minister for Culture and Tourism."
