Ms Paula Hilman:

I referred in an interview yesterday to how the crime we are discussing, particularly online crime, does not have borders. Online crime is happening on the other side of the world, with people viewing images in the UK and Ireland. We have very good information-sharing arrangements. We work very closely to share information with our colleagues in An Garda Síochána and in probation. Last month, some of our PANI co-ordinators were up training and using the same risk-assessment tools. This is about protecting children and the information-sharing protocols have been and are working well. It is something we have been examining but we do not see the legislation under which we work changing.
