    AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

    The incoming Ofcom chair, former Channel 4 boss Ian Cheshire, told MPs that the regulator must confront the perception that it has been complacent and slow on online safety, especially regarding the impact of social media on children under 16. He pledged to “probe and understand” tech giants’ practices, urging platforms to demonstrate willingness to do more, while clarifying the limits of what Ofcom can achieve and noting that restricting children’s access is ultimately a governmental decision.

Cheshire also addressed concerns about GB News’s impartiality and signalled a tougher approach to tech firms, announcing audits of YouTube, TikTok and Meta and urging additional safeguards for children, as the government’s consultation on child‑online safety draws to a close.
