(a) an industry code or an industry standard that deals with; or

(b) an industry code and an industry standard that together deal with;

each of the following matters:

(d) ensuring that content (other than live content or content that consists of an eligible electronic publication) that:

(i) has not been classified by the Classification Board; and
