</P><P>
It dawned on John Whittingdale that there might be a problem when Bebo safety chief Rachel O'Connell told him the site operated an "over 13s" policy.
</P><P>
To laughter, the Commons culture committee chairman was told his daughter should not be on the website. 
</P><P>
"I shall plainly have to go and talk to her," the MP replied.

The committee Mr Whittingdale chairs is conducting an inquiry into dangers on the internet and computer games.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7373314.stm"><P>
During a hearing on Tuesday, the MP asked what the minimum age was appropriate for joining Bebo - and was told under US legislation, 13 was the minimum age.

He said: "My daughter is 12, she's been on Bebo for at least 18 months.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7373314.stm"><P>
