Nina Carberry wants Ireland to use its presidency of the EU to focus on online safety for children.
A Midlands MEP wants to see the government prioritise safeguarding children’s online wellbeing throughout Ireland’s upcoming term as President of the European Union.
Nina Carberry has written to the Taoiseach and the Tánaiste as the EU prepares to debate legislation on age and identity verification for social media platforms.
The Fine Gael rep is working on the European Parliament’s report on Protecting Minors Online, with a vote anticipated in November.
MEP Carberry says Ireland's presidency of the European Union is coming at a vital time:
