Category E: Explanatory Note:

Having applied the criteria in section 11 as well as the test for indecency in section 2, it was the Tribunal’s finding that the following publications were indecent in the hands of children under a specified age. The Tribunal also found that they were likely to be read by children. Both of the conditions for the application of section 11 (3) were met. Category E is the only category of comics affected by section 11 (3). Because the Tribunal decided that these publications were indecent in the hands of persons under the age of 16 and 18 years due to their non-violent sexual content, section 11 (3) deemed them to be unconditionally indecent.
