House of Representatives Wants to Ban Advertising via Kidfluencers

A majority in the Dutch House of Representatives, including VVD, CDA, D66, and PRO, supports banning companies from using children under 16 for commercial social media content. Members Arend Kisteman and Elles van Ark propose legal accountability for advertisers through chain responsibility, urging the cabinet to investigate measures by early 2027. This legislative push complements Minister Thierry Aartsen’s ongoing efforts to regulate kidfluencing under child labor laws and enhance care duties in advertising codes to protect children's privacy and well-being.
