Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

Moderation of Violent and Harmful Content on the Facebook Platform: Discussion

12:00 pm

Ms Niamh Sweeney:

I do not know whether that is a natural follow-on. We are heavily regulated in particular spaces, data protection being one of them. We accept there is need for greater regulation in this space, whether it comes at national first or at European level, but I do not agree that will be a bad thing, if done sensibly. We welcome that we have been invited to contribute to the detailed scrutiny of the Bills proposed by Deputies Lawless and Ó Laoghaire.
