Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs

Sexual Harassment in the Arts and Culture Sector: Discussion

2:30 pm

Chairman:

I am told the matter could be sub judiceand as a result we have a number of objectives. We want to safeguard any victims there may be in the process. The danger is if we are seen to discuss these issues we may make it harder for those cases to occur in future. However, it might be useful to have a continuing discussion in private session after this meeting. If people are happy to go down that route, issues could be teased out in that way. We are required to fulfil our responsibilities with regard to people’s good name. I ask the Senator not to proceed with that question.
