Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality
Online Harassment and Harmful Communications: Discussion
Ms Caroline Counihan:
However, I will half contradict myself and note that there is another school of thought. The Scottish legislation is a good example. It advocates shifting the focus from the level, nature or anything to do with the harm inflicted on the victim and onto the intention of the perpetrator. Does that person have subjective intention to cause harm?
