Selling infant safety: entanglements of childhood preciousness, vulnerability and unpredictability
in Young Consumers
Description | Member of the panel of experts assessing the Impact of the Commercial World on Children's Well-Being (2008-2009) Department of Children, Schools and Families and the Department of Culture, Media and Sport |
Geographic Reach | National |
Policy Influence Type | Membership of a guideline committee |
Impact | The report from the review was read and commented on by the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families, and then publicly released in December 2009. With the change in government in 2010, it is not apparent that the report was linked to policy proposals. The work did result in further public engagement, for instance through the Westminster Media Forum in 2010. |
