New measures against AI generated child sex abuse images are being voted on this week.
New EU legislation to remove the statute of limitation on child sexual abuse crimes in the Union will be voted on by MEPs tomorrow.
They will also vote on laws to criminalise child sexual abuse material generated by artificial intelligence systems next week.
This includes the development, possession, and distribution of artificial intelligence systems used to produce such content.
Midlands Northwest MEP Maria Walsh, who's on the committee responsible for the directive, says these laws have been a long time coming for victims:
