Ms Triona Quill:

As the Senator stated, we expect that the media commission will draw on a number of sources in assessing the level of risk posed by particular social media platforms, including fellow regulators across Europe, who we expect to have input in that regard. That will be an important source of the commission's assessment. However, we do feel that because NGOs have their feet on the ground, as it were, and engage directly with citizens, including children, they have an important role to play in that regard. The intention is not to put a burden on them. Rather, if a particular service feels that it could play a useful role in this regard, there should be a mechanism in place to give it an input into the media commission's considerations beyond just a general advocacy role. It was with that intention in mind that we included provisions in respect of super-complainants. Obviously, we will have to see how it operates in practice. It is, however, a useful mechanism to put in place, not to impose an undue burden but to allow a voice to be heard.
