Mr. Dualta Ó Broin:

I will not refer to any particular case. When something meets the threshold of hate speech, it is one category of this type of content which would violate our community standards and would be removed. There are several different nuances within the type of content being shared on the platform. There is material that obviously violates the terms but we must also respect that there may be political views within that criticising asylum seekers or the migration of people. It is not a clearcut process where one can run through each and every one and say that they are all hate speech and they must all be taken down. We do take it very seriously. That is why we take review of each of these cases extremely seriously. Having said that, we have said what our line is. We are open to hearing whether our line should go further. I will ask Ms Rush to speak on the legal situation in Ireland on hate speech. Facebook has set out its policy and we enforce against that. If there is a view that we are not doing that or that we should take down more, we are open to hearing what that would look like.
