MeDeMAP Research Project: Engagement with the National Citizens' Parliament for Media and Democracy

Ms Moya Ní Cheallaigh:
It is really interesting because the younger people in the parliament were nearly stricter about that and thought it was more of an issue than us older people. They have been more exposed to social media and the damage it does. As a mother of three children - they are a little more grown-up now - I had huge worries about that. It was one of the issues we discussed. I think the minimum age should be 16 years, but some people thought 18 years.
