This Order is made under section 4B of the Video Recordings Act 1984, which was inserted by the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994.
It enables video works which were classified before 3rd November 1994 to have their classification certificates reviewed. The authority responsible for classifying video works may issue a different certificate (for example, one specifying a different age restriction) or it may refuse to classify the work altogether.
Under article 5, a decision to withdraw a work’s classification takes effect after two weeks. Under article 6, the corresponding period for decisions to issue a different certificate is three months.
Under article 8, the authority must notify certain interested persons of any decision to re-classify, or not to classify, a previously classified work.
