Engagement with Coimisiún na Meán on the 2023 Work Programme
Ms Niamh Hodnett:
We consulted in July in our call for inputs as to what should be contained in our first online safety code. That consultation was out until 4 September and we received over 50 responses to that from Government Departments, from civil society, from academia and from the platforms themselves. We are now reviewing those responses and the next step is later in the autumn when we will consult on a draft online safety code that will have the proposed binding measures we will have in our final online safety code. We will allow a period of consultation for that and then will adopt our binding online safety code.
