RATINGS
O: Universal or general exhibition (omnibus ostendatur)
S: Suggested exhibition only to boys over the age of 12 and girls over the age of 13. (suademus)
R: Restricted exhibition for men over the age of 18 and women over the age of 21. (restringatur)
M: Exhibition not advised (monemus)
P: Exhibition proscribed (prohibetur)
All films, unless educational, sporting, live, musical or shewing a religious service must be submitted on tape to the Board of Film, Drews House, Lymgate, with a two week minimum processing period. If approved, a certificate is issued which must be shewn prior to the shewing of the film in a cinema. Such a certificate is either an omnibus ostendatur, Latin for 'let it be shewn for all', a restringatur, Latin for 'let it be restricted (for some people), or a prohibetur, Latin for 'it is prohibited'. General films on religion and faith must pass through the ecclesiastical censors and receive a nihil obstat and ostendi potest before the Board will issue ostendatur. The Board may for works rated O also issue a suademus, 'we recommend', suggesting that the programme should only be shewn to boys over the age of 12 and girls over the age of 13. Similarly, for programmes rated R, a 'monemus, 'we advise' may be issued warning that the programme ought not be shewn at all, but does not forbid it like a prohibetur.
Restricted and prohibited exhibition is legally enforced for cinemas but not for private viewing. Advisory exhibition ratings are not legally enforced, however many cinemas enforce them for public decency.
