Section 10 of the Codes of Practice concerned provide that the Codes will be monitored for compliance and effectiveness by a monitoring body designated by the Minister for Health; and that it will be free to decide on its operational methods. The engagement referred to by the Deputy will be considered as the monitoring body evolves, in the context of any overlap that may arise in its work with internet safety.
