Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Ms Karen White:
That is the enforcement action that we can take currently. Progress in this area, relating to the type of behaviour the Deputy is talking about, is incredibly tough. There is a wider, societal issue that needs to be addressed here. Simply removing the content from a service is not necessarily, in all instances, going to change the intolerance we see online.
