Engagement with the Central Bank of Ireland

Ms Derville Rowland:

We will. Coimisiún na Meán has been set up to lead on regulation of key domains of weakness in online service provision. It is the key regulator but we know we have a role in that, which is to become a trusted flagger, and we are applying for that. If we get trusted flagger status, that means when we see an advertisement like that we will deal with the advertisement, get it taken down and go through the procedures. We could then contact, for example, Meta or Google, and be dealt with in a priority way to get them to take things down as well because these things can pop up in multiple ways.
