Mr. Justice John Quirke:

We have one view, which is that we do not want to confuse it with the wider question of incitement to hatred. We think that is a very difficult project that is far too wide-ranging and has run into difficulty in other jurisdictions because of its nature and extent. We think this should be confined literally to cyberbullying via communications of this kind. As the Chairman has indicated, there is significant interest in and concern about the need to deal with it. Even on its own, it will be a difficult project with international implications. Some of the issues include the nature and feasibility of enforcement and the extent of it. We believe it must be addressed because it is such a significant matter, but we think it needs to be confined within the cyber area, if that is coherent, which it probably is not.
