Reports are accepted and processed according to the operational procedures manual approved by the Police Department under the Ministry of the Interior of the Republic of Lithuania and by the Office of the Inspector of Journalist Ethics of the Republic of Lithuania under agreements with the RRT. Report on illegal or harmful content, such as pornography or child sexual abuse material, content inciting racial or ethnic hatred, content leading to violence or making other negative influence on minors can be submitted by completing a special online report form at the website of the hotline.
