Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Operation and Resourcing of Coimisiún na Meán: Digital Services Commissioner

Dr. John Evans:

The Competition and Consumer Protection Commission, under general consumer law, also has a responsibility here around influencers. It has done a number of campaigns to try and address the kind of issue that the Deputy is thinking of around inappropriate placement of materials or lack of transparency around whether something is an advertisement or not.
