Aim
Television and Entertainment Licensing
Authority (TELA) is one of the enforcing agencies
of the "Control of Obscene and Indecent Articles Ordinance".
Over the years, TELA has strived to combat the publication
of obscene and indecent articles. However, enforcement
alone does not suffice to safeguard the healthy development
of youngsters. TELA therefore set up the Healthy Information
Resource Centre with a view to offering support to
teachers, parents and social workers in providing
proper guidance and counselling to youngsters in order
to enhance their ability to deal with objectionable
information and minimize the adverse effects of such
materials on them.
Resources
The Centre has a large collection
of reference materials on the Control of Obscene and
Indecent Articles Ordinance and other relevant topics,
including media education, sex education and a wide
range of child and teen issues. Available in the format
of book, study report, video tape, audio tape, CD-ROM
or teaching kit, these materials are provided for
the public's reference in the Centre.
Facilities
The Centre provides TV sets, multimedia PC systems, hi-fi
equipment, etc. to facilitate public access to the reference materials.
