I do not have a date for that legislation currently but I join Deputy Martin and every other Member in expressing condemnation and disgust at the stories we have all read today and on other days about sexual predators and others using social media and online systems to gain access to children. None of these behaviours was created by the Internet but its existence allows people to contact other individuals, including children, with much more ease. I am advised by the Minister, Deputy Naughten, that the next step is an open policy debate on the issue, which will be held on Thursday, 8 March 2018 at the Royal Hospital Kilmainham. The Minister intends to take further steps on foot of that.
