- Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Data Protection Bill 2018: Committee Stage (Resumed) (3 May 2018)

- Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Data Protection Bill 2018: Committee Stage (Resumed) (3 May 2018)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: No. I am sure I can find it. If it is the case as far as the Minister of State and the Department are concerned that there is no requirement to provide for the Data Protection Commissioner to have these powers under Irish legislation so that it will be possible to recover profits gained on foot of offences under this Bill, I will be happy enough to withdraw my amendment.
- Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Data Protection Bill 2018: Committee Stage (Resumed) (3 May 2018)

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Neither provoking nor encouraging.
- Criminal Justice (Corruption Offences) Bill 2017: Report and Final Stages (2 May 2018)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: The Minister has taken on board the point we made. It is fair to say that there have been issues in the past with corruption that have centred around local authorities. It is important to acknowledge that, similar to other public representatives and elected persons, we should identify members of local authorities specifically, and I thank the Minister for taking the point on board.
- Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Data Protection Bill 2018: Committee Stage (2 May 2018)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: We will be supporting the amendment in the name of Deputies Daly and Wallace. Like Deputy Daly, I will make some points to which I will refer after the fact rather than repeat in respect of various amendments because they apply to a number of them. One of the primary criticisms of this Bill is the length of it and the extent of the exemptions and the scope for regulation. In a general...
- Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Data Protection Bill 2018: Committee Stage (2 May 2018)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I wish to respond to that. It is not directly analogous, but every year there is a resolution to renew the Offences Against the State (Amendment) Act 1998 and the Criminal Justice (Amendment) Act 2009. There are regularly resolutions on the transposition of European legislation and on the approval of conventions. Some of those motions are taken with debate, some are taken without debate....

There is a slight drafting error in the amendment and I am not sure it will be possible to press it....
- Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Data Protection Bill 2018: Committee Stage (2 May 2018)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I support the tenor and principle of all those amendments. They are valuable. My preference, between amendments Nos. 14 and 15, would be for the European Data Protection Supervisor as opposed to the European Data Protection Board. Will the Minister clarify in what regard No. 15 is contrary to the GDPR?
- Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Data Protection Bill 2018: Committee Stage (2 May 2018)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I move amendment No. 26:In page 23, between lines 14 and 15, to insert the following:“Data-harvesting, micro-targeting and profiling of children for financial gain 30. It shall be an offence under this Act for any company or corporate body to collect, collate, or store data pertaining to a child as defined by section 29, for the uses of profiling or micro-targeting, for the purposes...
- Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Data Protection Bill 2018: Committee Stage (2 May 2018)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Three of the amendments are relatively similar. I will echo the point made by Deputy Róisín Shortall, that the right call is being made about the digital age of consent. A great deal more is needed to ensure the safety online of children and the population at large which I have said in passing as it is not just children who are at risk online. There are advantages and...
- Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Data Protection Bill 2018: Committee Stage (2 May 2018)
Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Having read Article 47, I do not really see anything. We can do this relatively tightly. Where is the problem in Article 47 of the GDPR?
- Select Committee on Justice and Equality: Data Protection Bill 2018: Committee Stage (2 May 2018)
