Taoiseach says the Government will review online safety measures for children following Anastasia Kriegel murder trial




The Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said that the Government will review online safety measures for young children.

Speaking in the Dáil on Wednesday, the Taoiseach said that the Government would look at the UK’s upcoming age verification security system that will prevent young children from accessing pornography and other harmful content.

The Taoiseach’s comments come after the Labour Party leader Brendan Howlin asked the Dail would the government look at introducing such measures following the murder of Anastasia Kriegel.

Responding to the query the Taoiseach said that the matter is of great concern and agreed that children should not have easy access to such material.
