Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

Session 3: The State of Play in Regulation

Ms Keit Pentus-Rosimannus:

My understanding is that there is no need to have a new regulation in this area. During a previous session, we heard from representatives of Twitter, which has decided - without any new revelation - that it will no longer allow political advertisements to run.

I would like to put some questions to Mr. Cesarini. Before the European Parliament elections, the EU worked with online platforms on the basis of the code of practice. How can that be evolved? What is the conclusion? Shall we continue with a similar formula? What were the main problems with the code of practice?
