what is the film and publication board role
Film and Publication Board The Film and Publication Board, often shortened to FPB, is a content-classification and censorship authority in South Africa, operating under the Minister of Communications. The FPB was established in 1998[1] under the Films and Publications Act, ostensibly to tackle issues of child pornography and child abuse, as well as to provide ratings to publicly consumed media such as movies, music and television programs. Under these directives, its mandate can be considered one of state censorship.
