Paragraph
Paragraph text
The accountability of States is equally important to set a clear regulatory framework for the activities of corporations and to support businesses to meet their responsibilities in safeguarding children's rights throughout their operations, both at home and abroad. The many opportunities offered by regulation, self-regulation, incentives and public-private partnerships should be further explored, including with a view to attracting new sectors of activity, as well as small and medium-size companies. One example of such a regulatory framework is the Philippines Anti-Child Pornography Act of 2009 (see box below).
