- Seanad: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (26 Apr 2022)
Lynn Ruane: There is not a huge amount for me to add in relation to my amendment No. 172. The amendment is pretty much in line with a number of Senator Higgins's amendments, which seek to clear up any vagueness around the definitions of advertising and commercial communications within the Bill. It specifies that the term "advertising" would include commercial communications, that is, that commercial...
- Seanad: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (26 Apr 2022)
Lynn Ruane: Can we speak to the section rather than the amendments that have been ruled out of order?
- Seanad: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (26 Apr 2022)
Lynn Ruane: There are a few parts of section 3 that we will look to come back to with regard to amendments. A number of our amendments were ruled out of order and perhaps the uncoupling of some amendments from others may change that. I will put some of our concerns on the record with regard to section 3. There needs to be a definition of "algorithm". Going back to the Minister's initial comments,...
- Seanad: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (26 Apr 2022)
Lynn Ruane: I support Senator Byrne's amendment and the insertion of the term "socio-economic”.
- Seanad: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (26 Apr 2022)
Lynn Ruane: I move amendment No. 24: In page 19, to delete lines 34 to 37 and substitute the following: “(f) encourage research, promote, endorse, evaluate and approve educational initiatives and community awareness programmes and activities, including in the area of online safety, and co-operate for that purpose with educational bodies and community awareness programmes, and otherwise promote...
- Seanad: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (26 Apr 2022)
Lynn Ruane: To pick up on some of that, I do not think everything in the world of online safety needs to be attached to any sort of accreditation. Again, that is placing it in a particular framework in terms of people accessing education and training and having awareness of online digital safety. That does not bring it right down to a community level where people are not engaging in gaining...

Lynn Ruane: Does the Minister want to come back in briefly on that?
- Seanad: Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (26 Apr 2022)
Lynn Ruane: I wish to add my voice to the amendment. In the context of our discussions on the use of recommender systems and so on, they very much tie in with the banning of gambling advertising and with ensuring the advertising is not as targeted as it tends to be, with the profiling and microtargeting people. The issues are related. I will support the amendment but we need to strengthen the...

Lynn Ruane: I thank all the witnesses for their presentations today and for sharing their stories. It takes a huge emotional toll to have to give so much of yourself, but I hope that in the giving of yourself, we see change in this area and respect for the witnesses, their family life and their private life. It is difficult to hear other contributors talk about critically engaging with something. To...
