In December, Australia did something no other country had done before, becoming the first nation to formally bar users under the age of 16 from accessing major social media platforms.
Now, Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar says her Government is considering legislation to regulate social media use for children under 12.
Experts speaking to the Sunday Express Business say the move is urgently needed, as predators continue to exploit social media platforms widely used by Trinidad and Tobago’s youth.
