Coroners And Justice Bill

Internet security issues were again covered in Parliament last week as the Coroners and Justice Bill was debated in committee.  I don’t envy Parliamentarians. The complexities of what they are having to deal with are enormous.

In this case they are trying to improve the law to further protect children from online threats. The opening line of the questioning reads like this:

“It is curious that it is illegal in this country to groom a child for sex but not illegal to groom a child for suicide.”

It is worth reading the rest of the text of that particular section of the debate here. We are bound to see increased legislation in this space I feel.
