Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022: Report Stage
10:00 am
Catherine Martin (Dublin Rathdown, Green Party) | Oireachtas source
Amendments Nos. 5 and 15 are intended to replace two references to user-generated video with references to user-generated content. Amendment No. 5 will amend the definition of “commercial communication” to replace the reference to user-generated video with a reference to user-generated content. Amendment No. 15 will amend a line in section 7 regarding the functions of an coimisiún in respect of regulatory arrangements to again replace the reference to user-generated videos with a reference to user-generated content. The reason for this is that user-generated content refers to all forms of user-generated material, whereas user-generated video only refers to video material that is generated by users. These errors were noticed during consideration of a number of the amendments proposed by Senators on Committee Stage.
