High officials of the Police Crime Division stated that when setting up e-mail accounts for school children, do not enter the parents’ data and enter the correct age of the children.

The officials stated this at the Sectoral Oversight Committee on Reconciliation and National Unity.

The officials pointed out that due to online education being popular in the past period, it was necessary to provide the children with mobile phones (Smart Phone active) to access computer devices. However, they pointed out that by providing the parents’ data for this purpose when giving smart phones and starting e-mail, the children will have the opportunity to access any website. Without that, if the information including the correct age of the children is provided, the internet system itself will control the ability and access of the children to view inappropriate videos and websites.

This was discussed when the Sectoral Oversight Committee on Reconciliation and National Unity met in order to discuss the program to be carried out in collaboration with the National Reconciliation and Children and Women Bureau under the Chairmanship of MP Dilan Perera.

Furthermore, it is important to check whether the phone is approved by the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC) while using the phone. This means that if the phones are used for any criminal act, these phones have the ability to deal with it quickly.

This means that when a SIM card is inserted into a mobile phone registered with the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC), the Commission receives the relevant information. Therefore, when buying mobile phones, the police officers were informed to buy mobile phones with the registration of the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC).

Furthermore, the program carried out by the police in relation to national reconciliation and children and women affairs was also widely discussed.
