Moderation policy

The Ministry of Justice (MOJ) is committed to providing a respectful and constructive space for sharing ideas and feedback. We welcome a wide range of views and encourage open discussion.

To help maintain a safe and productive environment, all contributions must follow the guidelines below.

What we welcome

We encourage comments that:

• are relevant to the topic or consultation

• are respectful and constructive

• contribute meaningfully to discussion

What we will remove

We may remove content that:

• breaks the law (including defamation, hate speech, or copyright infringement)

• contains threats, harassment, abusive or discriminatory language

• includes obscene, offensive or explicit material

• is spam, advertising, promotional or repetitive

• is significantly off-topic or disruptive

• attempts to impersonate others or mislead

We reserve the right to moderate, edit or remove content at our discretion where it does not meet these standards.

How moderation works

Content may be moderated before or after publication by authorised MOJ staff. We aim to apply this policy fairly and consistently while supporting freedom of expression.
