Porn users will have to prove their age before they can access images online from April under a new law.
Websites which harbour content which is more than one-third pornographic will be obliged to verify the age of UK visitors under the new law.
The regulations had previously been delayed as the government needed to iron out underlying issues with the new proposed regulations.
The new law is expected to implement age verification checks for anyone wishing to access porn in the UK from April.
Websites which harbour content which is more than one-third pornographic will be obliged to verify the age of UK visitors
One of the suggested methods to verify the age of viewers would require those trying to access porn to input bank card details to all pornographic websites they visit.
Its purpose is to protect children online however some academics have pointed out that the measure may not be effective in preventing minors from accessing porn.
The law has also prompted fears over surveillance, cyber security, and blackmail. It has also been suggested that the law could put government ministers and other high-profile figures at risk of blackmail if their embarrassing habits were observed by hackers.
Back in November Culture Minister Margot James said she hoped legislation would be in Parliament before the end of the year (2018) but that websites would need time to 'get up to speed' after.
She told the Science and Technology Committee's inquiry on November 13, that the impact of social media had taken longer than hoped but 'we have got it right'.
Under the current scheme adult websites will have to provide their own verification software, which will then have to meet standards and checks carried out by the British Board of Film Classification.

Ms James said: 'We can expect it to be in force by Easter of next year and I make that timetable through the knowledge we have laid the necessary secondary legislation before parliament.
'I am hopeful of getting a slot to debate it before the end of the year. We have always said that we will permit the industry three months of getting up to speed with the practicalities and delivering the age verification that they will be required by law to deliver.
'We have also had to establish with the British Board for Film Classification, which has become the regulator, and they have had to consult on the methods of age verification.
'So it has taken longer than I would have liked but I would balance by a confidence that we have got it right.'

Ms James also said a deadline to speed up the removal of harmful content on social media is among the legislative measures being considered by the government in a bid to protect young people.
It compels social networking sites to remove illegal content within 24 hours of it being reported, or face fines.
When asked by Labour MP Liz Kendall whether the government was considering such a move, Ms James responded: 'Yes, I mean that would be one of the aspects of what may require new law as opposed to the many non-legislative measures that we're still developing.'
The minister warned there are some grey areas of what is deemed illegal content and what is not, which it is expected to be addressed in a white paper this winter.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
