I do not have a question to ask. I wish to notify the Chairman and the committee that the Joint Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment will host an International Grand Committee on Disinformation and Fake News on 7 November in the Seanad Chamber. The debate will be on how to get international collaboration in the regulation and governance of platforms and will also address harmful speech versus free speech and how to protect both. I am very hopeful that all of the three companies here will send representatives. Parliamentarians from all over the world will attend as will leading thinkers on the subject. The day before we will have a non-governmental organisation, NGO, event in the Westin Hotel and extend an invitation to the members of this committee. The Joint Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment will work in collaboration with this committee on this very critical issue.
