Mr. Jeremy Godfrey:

I might just take a step back to the relationship between us and An Coimisiún Toghcháin. The regulatory regime that applies is the Digital Services Act in this case. Under that Act, companies like Meta - the large platforms - have obligations to identify and mitigate risks to electoral integrity. There is a whole set of guidelines about what they are expected to do, and in the case of deepfakes, when they come to their attention, they are expected to either take them down or at least label them as deepfakes. One of the things we do is, before an electoral event like the presidential election, we run a round table with the platforms, An Coimisiún Toghcháin, An Garda Síochána and other people to make sure everybody is ready to play their role. When this came to our attention, therefore, we were also in touch with the platforms. Our role is not to ask for it to be taken down. Our role is to understand whether the platforms had acted in an appropriate manner. We are still evaluating that. We will be doing our own evaluation of the election and providing that to the European Commission because it is the body with the enforcement responsibility in this regard.
