“The Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2022 proposes to establish a Media Commission in place of the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland. It also transposes the revised provisions of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive contained in Directive (EU) 2018/1808 and establishes a regulatory framework for online safety. It also extends provisions on broadcasting codes and rules to audiovisual on-demand media services and provides for an enforcement framework which includes more extensive provisions on administrative financial sanctions and a number of offences.”
