If I report instances of indecent images of children to the IWF, how do I know they wont report me to the police?
The Sexual Offence Act 2003 provides a conditional defence if you have been viewing indecent images of children because of the nature of your job as an IT professional or similar and if you have reported the images to the IWF or the police within a timely manner (see the MoU for further clarification).
