Today is the formal opening of the 2016-17 Parliamentary Year, normally referred to as the “State Opening”. Her Majesty comes along to Westminster and declares that a new Parliamentary session has begun. She does this by giving a speech which is written for her by the Prime Minister. It sets out the Government’s legislative programme for the term ahead. Included within the speech today is a promise to legislate to introduce age verification for pornographic web sites. Not a surprise at one level, but good to have it confirmed that everything is proceeding as anticipated.
