MANILA – The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) has inspected several bus terminals to ensure compliance with content regulations in public transportation ahead of the Undas (All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day) exodus.
In a statement on Thursday the MTRCB said the on-the-spot inspections and information drive were held on Oct. 20 27 and 29 by the MTRCB-Monitoring and Inspection Unit to check whether public utility vehicle (PUV) operators and drivers were screening only G (general audience) and PG (parental guidance) rated content inside their vehicles.
“The activity underscores the Agency’s commitment to promote responsible and age-appropriate viewing particularly in public spaces where families and children are likely to be present” it said.
The inspections were made in the cities of Manila Caloocan Buendia in Pasay and Cubao Quezon City.
“No violations were found during the inspection” it said.
In addition tarpaulins were installed in waiting areas and information materials were distributed to travelers.
MTRCB Chair and CEO Lala Sotto reminded operators and drivers of their responsibilities under Presidential Decree 1986 and the 2004 Revised MTRCB Implementing Rules and Regulations.
“This is part of our larger responsibility to ensure that every commuter particularly commuting Filipino children will experience a safe and family-friendly environment even while in transit” Sotto said.
