Online safety for children will be a key priority for me as part of the delivery of Ireland's Presidency of the Council of the European Union in the second half of this year. To this end, and as part of the work on this priority, my Department is planning a targeted one-day youth forum in the lead up to Ireland's Presidency of the EU to engage with and obtain the perspectives of children and young people on their experience online including their views on how to make the internet safer.
The outputs from the youth forum will also feed into a wider programme for a high level Presidency conference on online safety in September. The plans for the youth forum, including all aspects of logistics and participation remain under development and will be available in due course.
