Detailed Scrutiny of the Broadcasting (Amendment) Bill 2023: Discussion

1:00 pm

Dr. Eoin O'Dell:

Could I take up that last point and say that it is not a million miles away from Senator Malcolm Byrne's point. There will always be people who breach the legislation. There are people who speed notwithstanding our road traffic laws but the mere fact that people speed is not a reason not to have our road traffic laws. The mere fact that somebody might use AI to abuse the data is no reason not to have access to it. The mere fact that people abuse FOI is no reason not to have it.
