No formal assessment has been made. The Advertising Standards Authority are responsible for the regulation of advertising in the United Kingdom. Their codes outline the standards which advertisers must adhere to when producing marketing or advertising content. Currently there are no formal restrictions for the restrictions on advertising of chest binding or products associated with chest binding.
