Purpose: to discuss AV trial 
 
Discussion/Notes:  
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 DTA is talking to companies such as mastercard, 
 
 to understand their interest and use of AV and scope for being included 
in the trial. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
•   
  
 
 
   
• 
 we are working in a more complicated space unlike strongly regulated alcohol and 
gambling space. 
• 
 we are focused on establishing systems that enhance privacy, security and safety – 
including by being least invasive to the user (i.e. simply determining that someone is 18+). 
We prefer systems that are not an unnecessary burden to those wishing to access content or 
services which they are entitled to use. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

• 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
• 
 we are interested in a market-based system that offers choice to consumers.
