The Film and Publication Board (FPB; stylised in all lowercase) is a content-classification and regulation authority in South Africa, operating under the Department of Communications and Digital Technologies. The FPB was established in 1996[2] under the Films and Publications Act, ostensibly to tackle issues of child pornography and child abuse, as well as to provide ratings to publicly consumed media such as movies, music and television programs. Under these directives, its mandate can be considered one of state censorship.
