Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Online Harassment and Harmful Communications: Discussion (Resumed)

Dr. Mary Aiken:

The reason we should try to get ahead of the process is that the legal process takes time. Both Mr. Lupton and I sat on the Internet content governance advisory group which reported some five years ago. My concern is the harm that is being done while we sit and wait and watch what others are doing. Children are engaging with this technology and being harmed by it.
