12:50 pm

I thank the Law Reform Commission for the work it has done in this area. The Government will consider its work as a matter of urgency to see what legislation is necessary arising from the recommendations the commission has made. The Criminal Law (Sexual Offences) Bill, which will be discussed in the House next week, addresses some of the points raised by the LRC, for example, online abuse and the sexual grooming of children.
