TO: The Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland
Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House that the Classification of Computer Games and Images Act 1995 is currently out of step with the wishes of the electorate.
Your petitioners, therefore, request the House that it be amended to permit computer games to receive the R18+ classification when they have been refused classification under the Commonwealth Act.
Now here we go…some big wigs getting in on the action, and making a stink about the unfair situation in Australia. Not only is the lack of an R18+ rating hurting Australia, it’s causing game releases to get shaved down, cut up, and torn apart. Let’s hope this move helps build up to some actual discussion, instead of a brush-off by those in power.
