The Online Safety Bill is to be updated to criminalise the encouragement of self-harm, the Government has said, in what is being hailed a “significant move” by the Molly Russell Foundation. Culture Secretary Michelle Donelan said the update would create a new offence that would target communications that encourage someone to physically harm themselves, making it illegal to do so, and bringing it in line with communications that encourage suicide – which are already illegal. The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) said the changes to the Online Safety Bill had been influenced by the case of Molly Russell, the 14-year-old who took her own life in November 2017 after viewing social media content linked to depression, self-harm and suicide.
