The SABC board does the classification of films, videos, etc, for suitable viewership of all film material that is used by the SABC. The SABC board also encourages the public to inform it of any material broadcast by the SABC which it does not approve of. Any violent, graphic and gruesome images in broadcast content are censored by the SABC board before films can be published for children. Otherwise, members of the public are normally made aware of the age classification of the viewing material in order that parents can choose what they prefer to watch and what their children may watch.
