Rónán Mullen (Independent)

The witnesses are completely ILWA - in love with acronyms. I wish to ask about two things - malinformation and pornography. The Minister, Deputy O'Donovan, recently defended the need for a national approach to combat what he called online misinformation, disinformation and malinformation. Malinformation, as I understand it, refers to information that is accurate but which might be shared out of context or with harmful intent. We could be talking about truthful information - a discomforting, inconvenient or even inflammatory truth. That is a controversial business. Is Dr. Evans in a position to confirm that the work of the commission has nothing to do with malinformation as I describe it? I understand the other terms the Minister used but I would like to have clarity on that specific question about whether the commission sees malinformation as coming within its brief.
