French President Emmanuel Macron has said that he wants to speed up the legal process to ensure that a ban on social media for children under the age of 15 can come into force by the start of the new school year in September.
In a video released on Saturday by French broadcaster BFM-TV, Macron said he had asked his government to initiate an accelerated procedure so that the bill could progress as quickly as possible and be adopted by the Senate in time.
