The amendment would provide that where an coimisiún has submitted a proposal for an additional category of harmful online content to the Minister, the Minister may request that an coimisiún reconsider or review the proposal. The relevant section in the Bill as initiated provides that the Minister may request that an coimisiún review the proposal. I do not accept this amendment as I do not see a substantial difference between the meanings of reconsider and review in this context. It is difficult to see how an coimisiún would reconsider a proposal without also reviewing it.
