The Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill is one of seven Bills from the Minister currently before the Dáil and the Seanad.
This Bill updates the Incitement to Hatred Act 1989 and provides for the introduction of hate crime for the first time (for example; an assault which is motivated by hated).
The scheduling of bills is a matter for the Oireachtas.
