After the matter of jurisdiction was raised between the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology and the Ministry of Women, Children and Senior Citizens, the Online Child Protection Procedure, 2078, which was formulated three years ago, has not been implemented.
After the Ministry of Communication presented its claim on the matter of online connection and said that the issue of children's safety will be included in the social media regulation bill, the Ministry of Women and Children has kept it without approving the procedure.
Deepak Dhakal, Deputy Secretary of the Child Protection and Development Branch of the Ministry of Women, Children and Senior Citizens said that although there was a lot of discussion on the draft procedure, the ministry did not approve it. "This has been stopped because there are many laws in the pipeline in the ministry," he said, "Now the discussion has started again, the ministry will take it forward."
The former executive director of the Child Rights Council, Milan Dharel, who was involved in the drafting of the procedure, basically included the topics of child empowerment, establishing an online complaint system and making Internet service providers aware of the institutional responsibility for the safety of children. If Dharel, active as the Asian President, had implemented this, digital empowerment of children and online complaint system would have been started.
The draft law on social networks released by the Ministry of Communication does not include specific provisions on children. "We have formulated online child safety procedures not to regulate technology, but to make parents and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) responsible," Dharel said. The procedure was made keeping in mind the creation of child protection standards, but unfortunately it has not been implemented.'
Article 57 mentions that schools, every public agency working directly with children and private sector and social organizations must create and implement child protection standards at the institutional level to prevent violence against children or child sexual abuse, ensure the protection of children and take immediate action on complaints. is . In addition, it has been clarified that the implementation of this standard is the main responsibility of schools, every public body and private sector and social organizations.
