The last paragraph in the article says:
"Earlier this month, junior minister Stephen Parkinson appeared to concede ground, saying in parliament's upper chamber that Ofcom would only require them to scan content where "technically feasible"."
By this I understand that all communication needs to be scanned except End To End Encryption where is not "technically feasible"

There's secondary supporting legislation needs to go in and a framework from Ofcom yet. Signal indicated they'd leave of those went in.
"finally passed" isn't how I would have headlined this, interesting choice by Reuters.
I cant believe it, they actually did it
Thank god! We don't have to worry any more now. Everyone is safe online. /s
