Cabinet Aproves Legislation To Criminalise Sharing Of Intimate Images Without Consent

Under the new laws, someone may be jailed for up to seven years if they have published abusive material with the intent of causing harm.

Someone found to be forwarding the material on after receiving it could be jailed for up to 12 months or be fined up to five thousand euro.

Justice Minister Helen McEntee is hopeful the new laws will be enacted before the end of the year.
