Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Ms Sabha Greene:

Yes. This is meant to make it much more straightforward, to put an obligation on the platforms to find things, and to take them down when they have been contacted.

The applicable law and the EU regulation is based upon the country-of-origin principle. It is Irish law, therefore, that applies if one is established here and it will therefore be going through Irish courts.
