When the NCA receives notification or referrals relating to Manga and CGI material interpreted as representing a child or children involved in sexual activity, where the material is deemed as prohibited it is investigated by law enforcement, which may include preservation orders resulting in the material being taken down.

If the site is outside the UK, it is reported by the NCA to the host country via Interpol channels to take appropriate action.
