David Stanton (Cork East, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
The Bill provides that a person may be tried in the State for an offence under sections 2 to 6, inclusive, if that offence is committed by a person inside the State in respect of an information system outside the State or if it relates to offences committed inside or outside the State in respect of an information system in the State. Legal jurisdiction extends to the commission of such an offence by a person outside the State in respect of an information system outside the State if the person is an Irish citizen, is a person ordinarily resident in the State or is a body corporate or company under the law of the State and the act is an offence under the law of the place where the act was committed.
