It’s outrageous that I even have to clarify the following, however I will not allow these bastards to tarnish my good name further: 1. I have never done anything inappropriate with anyone underage online or offline. 2. “Mischief” will be hearing from my solicitor in due course.

I have said time and time again about non-Irish having automatic weapons In Ireland, I spoke last year about hearing automatic gun fire in wooded areas in Co Galway, How is it possible that persons are going around the streets of Ireland with AR 15 automatic rifles, and Bullet proof vests, How did they get them into the country. Not to mention pipe bombs, and let's not forget the pipe bomb that killed an asylum seeker who was manufacturing them when it exploded under his bed. People say Ireland has great gun laws, just remember it is the criminals who have the guns and the automatic weapons now along with the Jihadi and terrorists. Our Government are suggesting that Anti-Terrorism laws and the Special Criminal court will be used for "far-right" protesters who dare to question the government, I think it would be more in their line to deal with the gangs and terrorists who are a direct threat to the honest and decent citizens of Ireland. Worse still, a video has emerged of Josh who can be seen in the company of two other men, who are wearing balaclavas and have their identities completely concealed, as they drive along the motorway in a flashy Mercedes Benz vehicle. "Josh Itseli was known to gardaí and one line of inquiry is that he was part of a gang on the way to carry out an attack when they were intercepted and ambushed by other criminals." Another fact was that Josh Itseli also known as Joshua Itseli (20) was facing €30k crack cocaine charges. Another fact is that "One of the arrested men is a violent and dangerous criminal in his 20s who was charged with a serious offence five weeks ago and was out on bail." Detectives are also investigating if a violent young criminal, who is aged in his early 20s and suspected of previous gun attacks, was directly involved. The suspect in custody is also under investigation for a violent assault on a young woman in the city recently, with gardaí having grown “increasingly concerned” about his escalating involvement in criminality. Yet he was out on Bail ! RTE's Take on the matter. Three men still being questioned in connection with Drimnagh murder Three men are still being questioned in connection with the investigation into the murder of a 20-year-old man in Driminagh, Dublin. Josh Itseli, who had an address in the Kylemore area of Dublin, died after he was shot several times on Knocknarea Road at around 12.15am yesterday. He is the first gang-related murder victim this year. Gardaí believe that he was the victim of a feud among criminal gangs in Dublin city. Three young men, one a teenager, were arrested 1km away from the scene of the shooting. They were wearing bullet proof vests. They are being held for questioning at garda stations in Dublin. An area in Drimnagh was searched as part of the investigation into the murder, and gardaí have recovered a military grade AR-15 assault rifle. Garda search teams searched the grounds and hedges of the Curlew Day Centre where the weapon was found. The rifle was recovered from the hedge and gardaí also searched for any other evidence in connection with the murder including bullets, masks, gloves and potentially other firearms. The assault rifle was disposed by the gunman fleeing the scene. Gardaí have said that following technical examinations, all crime scenes connected to the murder have now been lifted and all roads have reopened. A number of cars have also been seized and taken to a garda storage facility for a forensic examination. Gardaí are still trying to determine the series of events that led to the murder. Mr Itseli was known to gardaí and one line of inquiry is that he was part of a gang on the way to carry out an attack when they were intercepted and ambushed by other criminals. He was in one of two cars, a black Mercedes and a black Volkswagen Golf, that crashed at the scene in what detectives suspect could have been part of an interception or double cross. A third car, a silver Ford Focus, was also found nearby. One of the arrested men is a violent and dangerous criminal in his 20s who was charged with a serious offence five weeks ago and was out on bail. He was also the victim of a recent attack and gardaí are investigating if he was seeking retaliation when the murder took place. The firearm and a pipe bomb, which an Army bomb disposal team made safe, are being forensically examined. Detectives are also trying to identify a number of other people who fled the scene after the murder. Gardaí are carrying out house to house inquiries in the area. Superintendent Paul Maher has appealed for anyone with information, dashcam or phone footage to contact the incident room at Sundrive Road Garda Station.

So the NATIONAL WOMEN'S COUNCIL OF IRELAND has two companies both claiming charity status, one which is registered with the Charity regulator and who have updated their filings in the last three days, and the other one which is not, the company which is being afforded all the public funding is not listed with the charity regulator
@keira_con - Keira Connnolly
I have no idea, one would assume that both companies would be listed with the regulator and both accounts would be submitted to the regulator, but that seems not to be the case other than they refer to a sister company with no employees which has a moderate income

Let me tell you a little story, At the start of the year a number of people sent me posts by Ukrainians who wanted to let houses or rooms in Ireland, and others who wanted to let apartments in Ukraine either as Air B&B or a full let. I had a look at these and with the help of some like-minded people equipped with undercover devices we followed all the posts and obtained footage of the properties and had phone or in person conversations with the owners all recorded for prosperity. We have rooms in parts of Ireland being sublet by persons taking advantage of the Accommodation Recognition Payment. In some cases they are willing to sublet rooms, or in another case they were willing to let the house while keeping one room in it as they spent most of their time in Ukraine now. Best of all, we have footage of three apartments in Ukraine which were available to let, as the persons controlling them "preferred Ireland" and their daughter and son were going to university here. We are in the process of putting the footage together. To be fair, we have also asked the parties involved as to the reasons they felt it was ok to game the Irish system, particularly when there are vulnerable people in need of housing and where they were happy to have sublet for cash a house paid fully by the Irish state. Most parties have blocked us on social media and refuse to take calls on the number provided, But when a reasonable time for a comment by them has elapsed we will publish the footage and provide the contents to the department of protection and social welfare.

IMPORTANT : Please read, comment and most importantly share. We have defeated the referendum, the next focus is the proposed hate speech laws. Our Justice Minister Helen McEntee has claimed many times on social media and MSM that the majority of the Irish people support the proposed changes to the law. I think after the majority no vote on Friday the ability of the government to read the people and to understand the wishes of the electorate is lost, The government had themselves convinced that it was a slam dunk which it was not. I have a plan for the hate speech laws as it seems the only way they listen is by putting the facts in front of them. I am wondering if there would be an appetite to show this once and for all. Here is my plan but the bad news it is going to cost everyone €9.60, and you will need an envelope and a printer. I propose we all sent a registered letter to Minister Helen McEntee outlining that we do not support the new bill we are adverse to the Dáil passing it as there is a legal framework under the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act, 1997 revised and updated on the 1st of November 2023. I propose to produce a letter that is circulated that one signs and that it is sent Via registered "tracked" post to the Minister, I will set up a website where one can register Initials or even your dog's name, but more importantly the tracking number and date sent on a form which is logged to a database, and then We can then set up a script which will pull the POD's as the letters are delivered this will not track the person sending the letter in any way, but we can publicly display a dashboard as to how many letters have been sent and delivered because they will have to be signed for that cannot be refuted If the same amount of letters were sent and logged as those who voted no, it would send a message that the majority of the public is not ok with these new laws. Is anyone up for this ? The current laws and amended recently Electronic communications and harassment are covered under this act and if applied can be used to negate any untoward advances towards a person. I think it's noteworthy that the acts have been amended and Acts which affect or previously affected this revision • Criminal Justice (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2023 (24/2023) • Harassment, Harmful Communications and Related Offences Act 2020 (32/2020) • Children First Act 2015 (36/2015) • Criminal Law (Defence and the Dwelling) Act 2011 (35/2011) • Civil Partnership and Certain Rights and Obligations of Cohabitants Act 2010 (24/2010) • Fines Act 2010 (8/2010) • Criminal Justice (Safety of United Nations Workers) Act 2000 (16/2000) All Acts up to and including Screening of Third Country Transactions Act 2023 (28/2023), enacted 31 October 2023, were considered in the preparation of this revision.

So riddle me this I have proven without doubt that in 2022 NWCI was fully funded by the Irish government save a few external donations. I am awaiting last year's accounts, which have not been published yet. The Department of Community and Rural Development made two grant payments to NWCI in 2022 but "Last month the Department of Community and Rural Development wrote to community and voluntary organisations in receipt of direct or indirect department funding warning them against spending public money in the campaign." Has the Department of Community and Rural Development pulled their funding of NWCI ? Government warned groups with public funding it would be ‘preferable’ to avoid referendum information Voluntary organisations warned of ‘high test of neutrality’ Organisations in receipt of public funds were told by the Government it would be “preferable” if they avoided publishing material about the forthcoming family and care referendums. Last month the Department of Community and Rural Development wrote to community and voluntary organisations in receipt of direct or indirect department funding warning them against spending public money in the campaign. The organisations were told that where a body or agency receiving public money is disseminating any information about a referendum it must “ensure such information is equal, fair, impartial and neutral”. “However, since such information must meet a high test of neutrality it is preferable that bodies and agencies avoid publishing any information about the referendum unless it is unavoidable. The department cannot and will not act as an assessor or evaluator of any material about a referendum.” The groups were told that the display or distribution of any literature relating to the proposed amendments, including brochures, badges, leaflets, newsletters, notices and posters in offices, should generally be avoided. “Where such literature is provided, the body must ensure such information is equal, fair, impartial and neutral. Websites and social media sites of publicly-funded bodies and agencies must not be used to promote or advocate a particular outcome.” A spokeswoman for the department said on Tuesday that “bodies in receipt of funds from the department were reminded that they may not use those public funds to advocate for a particular outcome in a referendum. This is a long-standing and well understood principle, supported by court judgments. The notice was issued to all bodies in receipt of funding, including local authorities, agencies under our remit, and organisations in receipt of grant funding. It does not have any wider effect or restrict organisations in any other way. “Following a small number of queries from organisations a further notice issued to ensure there was no doubt that the notice referred only to the use of public funds and did not restrict organisations in any other way.” The department provides funding to the members of the Community and Voluntary Pillar, which is a 17-member group representing community and voluntary organisations. There has been increased focus on the spending of both the Yes and No sides ahead of Friday’s vote. The Yes-Yes side in the referendums on family and care has a combined war chest of at least €144,000, a level of funding that is vastly larger than the spending planned by prominent voices on the opposing side. On Monday Minister for Equality Roderic O’Gorman said he was “absolutely confident” that rules prohibiting the spending of taxpayers’ money on referendum campaigns have not been breached. There has been speculation that campaigners advocating for a No vote may be preparing a legal challenge to the outcome of the referendum if it is successful on the basis that the McKenna principles – which prevent the use of public funds to advocate for any side in a referendum – may have been breached. Campaigners on the No side have privately been questioning the role of campaigning organisations which receive funding from the State. Separately, the Electoral Commission has said that posters erected on behalf of Independent Senator Sharon Keogan contain a “factual misrepresentation” about what is being proposed in this Friday’s referendums. Ms Keoghan last week started an online fundraiser to print the posters, one of which urges people to vote No while stating: “Don’t force mothers out to work.” She has raised nearly €25,000 so far through a GoFundMe page. Chairwoman of the Electoral Commission Ms Justice Marie Baker said there is nothing in either of the referendum proposals that would force women to either stay at home or go out to work. “An Coimisiún Toghcháin is clear that one of the posters which have been posted in a number of areas in Dublin and elsewhere under the imprint of Senator Sharon Keogan is an incorrect representation of what people are being asked to vote on this Friday.” Ms Keogan said she stood by her posters.

Everyone of these charities and NGO's are going to be scrutinised in the coming weeks and months with a full public disclosure on who is involved how much do they earn and who are they connected to, Including connections to who are their funders both in Ireland and abroad, we are going to set up a secure whistle-blowers drop box in the coming days, If they are a charity or a NGO they are open to public scrutiny

Good Afternoon Happy Mothers Day 🥰 to all the brave women who stood up and were counted on Friday, and Thank you to all the men who assured that women and mothers were not going to be extinguished from our constitution. I have been overwhelmed with DM and Emails offering support to this project, It seems that there is an appetite for this information. I have received DMs from other countries who also what to investigate the NGO's in their countries, I feel that this could be valuable as on summary review of the bigger NGO's players they are receiving monies from other countries. I am of the option that by sharing our methodologies and technology with other parties, this would yield a result not alone beneficial to the citizens of Ireland but also the citizens of the world. I have also received whistleblower reports from now protected persons which we will be acting on, If we feel that there is or has been criminal activity we intend to presue private criminal prosecutions. It has been pointed out that NGO's can be local hurling clubs or other societies I am well aware of a that, while we intend to look at all NGO's and Charities our main focus for the moment are the "commercial" NGO's and those listed as being adviser, stakeholders who were involved in the shaping of the current rejected referendum, Or involved in the current proposed hate speech laws. When we say "commercial" NGO's we are referring to NGOs who are not voluntary organisations who are granted funds to pay insurance or a bowling mat, the likes of a club in a community, We are looking at the highly commercialised NGO's Who are lobbying for changes to our democracy and in some cases the persecution of citizens through bulling or their cancel culture. NGO's that have CEOs on large salaries, expenses, company cars, and large pension contributions, I find it quite ironic that some of these CEOS are lauded with accolade for their "charity" work while banking €100,000 plus a year in salaries. In the case of NWCI they had 17 staff as per their 2022 accounts at a cost of €812,486 the majority of their income was from the department of children equality disability integration and youth €611,000, Along with the HSE €108,544, https://ssno.pobal.ie/ €88,869 and a second payment from Department of Rural and Community Development €10,000 we also have the https://www.globalfundforwomen.org €13,441 bringing some American thinking to the NWCI and http://novofoundation.org (Novotides the payment processor) judging by both their ethos and websites they have a far left leaning which has rubbed off on the NWCI it seems! I am going to be very interested to see the 2023 accounts and payments when they are published to see how much was pumped into NWCI to secure the Yes votes. This is a commercial NGO,

I know its a long read but for the day that is in. What an amazing day to be alive, The majority of the people of Ireland have spoken, Mothers, Women, their daughters and their female grandchildren have had their protection enshrined in the Irish constitution, for all that Voted no thank you from myself and my family and the women of Ireland. Over the last few weeks I have been inundated with hate mail, death threats because I have supported wise men and women like senator Michael McDowell, senator Gerard Craughwell, senator Sharon Keogan and many others who stood up and were counted in respect of the proposed amendments to the Irish constitution. In the last few years our coalition regime have ignored peoples right and during covid took a lots of legal rights away from people. We have the likes of Tony Holohan who advised the then minister of health Simon Harris that “I strongly advise that you do not commit to a review of CervicalCheck arising from the recent court case.” Dr Holohan warned the minister that to announce a review “could unnecessarily undermine public confidence in CervicalCheck” when there was “no evidence at this stage that there are quality or patient safety concerns with the CervicalCheck programme”. If there was any doubt as to the competence of the CervicalCheck process alarm bells should have been rung far and wide to allow all women to firstly have the tests performed and secondly to ensure the labs doing the screening were monitored to ensure all results were 100%, But no typical Irish government sweep things under the carpet cover it up and hope no one finds out. We then put this man in charge of covid “to save lives” does anyone see the irony in this ? I was pleased to publish a statement from Senator Michael McDowell where he presented information that a request for minutes of meetings with NGOS and special interests groups was denied to him. He also presented how a case that was given leave to proceed through the courts was going to be “torpedoed” if there was going to be a yes vote in the referendum. This seems to be the modus operandi of our regime, as when Declan Ganley brought a court case against the government as to restriction of worship in catholic churches, the government keep kicking the case down the road until it was a moot point. I think it is important to say that in the times of crises or impending disaster people turn to god for comfort and prayer, We had guards arresting priests much like the days when the English ruled Ireland and we had to use secret gatherings and mass rocks to practice our faith, On the other hand Mosques continued to open and operate and were never harassed. Our rulers have said they intend to run the referendum again the same as the Lisbon treaty until they get the result they want, I think it is very important to understand that one of the amendments of the second vote was that Ireland had an opt-in or opt-out clause on justice and immigration measures under the Lisbon Treaty The EU has never forced Ireland to take in refugees or immigrants However, Ireland voluntarily agreed to fully participate in the EU relocation and resettlement schemes set up in response to the migrant crisis that peaked in 2015. This was never put to a vote the citizens of Ireland were never given a say as to their wishes which over time has put pressure on schools, health service, housing and our social welfare system. In recent year we have seen 1200% increases in sexual assault in some counties in Ireland, We have seen gay men targeted by a Muslim fundamentalist who had 12 people on a kill list which he intended to action over Ramadan, In the end he sadly blinded one gay man and murdered, beheaded and disembowel two other gay me, Hi family was given sanctuary in Ireland, but after he returned to his home country he returned to Ireland to carry out these attacks, notwithstanding that at the time he was a 21-year-old and €375,000 was found in cash in his flat. We have many other murders including Ashing Murphy a young school teacher with her life ahead of her who was stabbed 11 times along with her throat being cut, The murder worked briefly in the country and was on disability for a long time, His family have now being charged with perverting a investigation. Our justice department has now admitted that 85% of refugee applications are fake and that 85% of applications lose their paperwork on the place. How could this be ? Instead of locking them up in a immigration centre, we allow them to get lost in Ireland. In 2017, it was reported that we had 117 persons in Ireland that are on a terrorist watch list, in 2020 it was reported that the number had grown to 193 which I am sure that number could be doubled now. We have men making pipe bombs in hostels, We have large amounts of monies found in places of worship without any explanation. Ireland is racked as an international hub of money laundering for terrorists groups, yet if a granny wants to lodge or withdraw €1000 for her bank she is put under scrutiny. Ireland is on a US Department of State Tier 2 watch list for the 4th year running for trafficking in persons included on the same list along with Romania, Belarus, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Chad, Cameroon, Haiti, Mali and Pakistan. The Irish passport was held in high esteem across the world until recently now it is regarded the same as toilet paper along with the passports of other despot countries. We are funding NGO’s to the tune of €6.5 Billion and that is just the monies from the Irish government, Some NGO’s are funded externally as well from special interests groups who want to change laws or the constitution of Ireland. Tax payers money to persecute the tax payer you could not make this up. We have a cabbage patch doll pushing laws which will effect the livelihood, the food security and the GDP of Ireland to reduce our global carbon footprint bearing in mind that Data Centres make up the vast majority of the energy needs but a cow farting is the problem, mean while China is the highest contributor at 29% followed by USA 14 % India and Russia, Ireland is well down the list. We have Mary Loo and her cohorts rubbing shoulders with Hamas and terrorists while Michelle O’Neill believes Hamas will eventually be partner for peace in Middle East. We have Leo leaking confidential government contracts to his mates, Rubbing shoulder with pops stars in the UK while Ireland was on a no travel ban and Irish citizens were restricted to a geo fence of 2 KM around their houses, Not being allowed to visit their loved ones who were dying in hospitals or nursing home or allowed to say their last good byes in the case of death. Elderly people were sent to nursing homes to die to “free” up hospitals and now the truth is coming out that most were put on end of life protocols. Ireland is awash with Ukrainians, Ukraine is 9 times bigger than Ireland, 603,000 Km vs 70,280 the fighting is in the east not country wide, yet we are giving free houses, medical cards, dental, and a living wage to persons who rent out their houses here to others, who have houses or apartments in Ukraine rented out to other, We allow them to drive their cars without the tests that Irish citizens must pass and they are exempt from motor tax and NCT. And best of all most went home to a war zone for Christmas and were annoyed they were only allowed to stay 2 weeks, It is either a war zone or it’s not. We have Irish homeless dying on our streets, we have persons who were doing dinners and charity work shutdown because the NGO;s were upset. We have hotels closing down, tens of thousands of young men in refugee accommodation, being housed beside schools, yet when a man houses himself and buys a mobile home and puts it on his own land he is threatened with Jail, and is told while he is in jail they local county council will destroy the dwelling. We are now in a phase of total madness, yesterday the people of Ireland spoke and I hope it has sent a message. We need to elect TD’s who work for the people not push agendas because they are offered a gig in Europe or that they want to be the best boys and girls at a yearly WEF meeting. We need to take control of our laws, Our borders, our judiciary to ensure everyone is treated equally under the eyes of the law rather than Irish grannies been sent to jail for not wearing a mask or people being sent to jail for no tv license, while convicted child molesters, rapists are set free because they did not understand the laws of the land. We need to stop apologising because we are Irish and patriots, Catholic or Protestant because it might offend 6 % of the population who it seems think they are 90 %, If you do not like our laws or way of life go to a country that abide by your traditions and Culture. I am sick of hearing about religious icons being removed from catholic hospitals or schools, I do not want to say happy holidays, I do not want to hang my Christmas decorations on a remembrance tree, I do not want to refer to a vagina as a bonus hole or that breast feeding is to be referred to as chest feeding, Or Morther is a birth giver, or a vessel for a baby because it insults or upsets .04 % of the population. I do not want hate speech laws pushed upon us that again protects protected categories under law, Under our constitution as it stands everyone is to be treated equally under the eyes of the law not the whims of some mentally disturbed NGO leaders or persons who twist the truth and reality. I would love to become a TD because I would ask questions which I would get answers to, I would love to have a group of like minded leaders who would cut through the crazy in Ireland and put it on a firm standing and equality for all. I would put a team together to control our borders, I would engage a team of investigators to access each refugee request but also to reassess previously granted refugee applications, passports and citizenships, If it was found that there were lies or in the case of a person going on holiday to the country they were fleeing persecution from they would be immediately deported along with their family. We need a general election now, We need a full investigation into the funding of NGO;s and an investigation into who is pulling their strings, Our current regime has failed the Irish people, they are not fit for purpose we must revoke out immigration opt-in and revisit our relationship with Europe before its too late. Comment would be appricated. Keira

This is what you are dealing with, Michael McDowell is the ex Irish Attorney General, clowns do not get into this position only learned people unlike our TDS and Government leaders. If he is raising alarm bells the safest thing to do is to Vote NO NO, Remember this is a constitutional change, once it is done there is no going back. Let look at the Lisbon constitutional change, Ireland had an opt-in clause for migration, Our rulers ignored this clause and let a lot of bad people into the country. Send a clear message this Friday #votenono if not for you, for your children and their children.

Ireland Has Fallen Ireland is trying to bring in punitive hate speech laws, but the old staying "sticks and stones may break my bones, (but words can never hurt me)" Let's face it, Ireland is now lawless, We have figures from our airports that 85% of "refugees" who entered Ireland lost their paperwork on the plane. We have a non-national elected to a council position in limerick who publicly wished death to protesters in Dublin in a fashion that is typically carried out in muslim countries. We have persons building pipe bombs in refugee accommodation. We have men who were beheaded by an asylum seeker A teacher who was murdered by a non national. An increase in rapes across the country. When A muslim cleric was "attacked" in a pub car park there was wall to wall media coverage, the big question is will this attack be covered by Irish Main Stream Media, Or will it be buried along with the rapes and murders. If you know the attackers, please report the matter to 999/211 The very fact that these guys were tooled up and were not afraid to hide it show the contempt they have for our country our laws and our hospitality, There are school children on this bus. Who carries around knives and metal bars. Ireland is no long safe for anyone, it is now the wild west, but sadly the citizens do not have guns to protect themselves.

BREAKING: I never thought I would see Ireland on a USA watch list. The Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Reports of 2021, 2022 and 2023 confirms that Ireland is to remain, for the third year running, on a 'watchlist' due to its inadequate response in tackling the problem Ireland has scored three in a row and is included on the same list along with Romania, Belarus, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Chad, Cameroon, Haiti, Mali and Pakistan. When you have issues gaining entry to the USA or are refused entry you can thank our glorious leaders. ******Important****** * Remember, Ireland was in Lock down in 2020* IRELAND: Tier 2 Watch List The Government of Ireland does not fully meet the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking but is making significant efforts to do so. These efforts included designating an independent human trafficking national rapporteur and establishing a formal national anti-trafficking forum composed of interagency and civil society stakeholders. In coordination with an international organization, the government launched a national anti-trafficking public awareness campaign. The government also increased funding for victim assistance, antitrafficking public awareness campaigns, and training. However, the government did not demonstrate overall increasing efforts compared to the previous reporting period, even considering the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its anti-trafficking capacity. While courts convicted one trafficker under false imprisonment charges, the government has not obtained a trafficking conviction under the anti-trafficking law since it was amended in 2013, which weakened deterrence, contributed to impunity for traffickers, and undermined efforts to support victims to testify. The government investigated and prosecuted fewer suspected traffickers, did not prosecute any labor traffickers, and victim identification decreased for the fourth year in a row. The government continued to have systemic deficiencies in victim identification, referral, and assistance, and lacked specialized accommodation and adequate services for victims. Therefore Ireland remained on Tier 2 Watch List for the third consecutive year. The government maintained inadequate law enforcement efforts. The 2008 Human Trafficking Act, amended in 2013, criminalized sex trafficking and labor trafficking and prescribed penalties up to life imprisonment, which were sufficiently stringent and, with respect to sex trafficking, commensurate with punishments prescribed for other serious crimes, such as rape. The law broadly defined sexual exploitation to include the sexual abuse of children. The Criminal Justice (Sexual Offences) Act of 2017 criminalized the purchase of sexual services and prescribed more severe penalties for the purchase of sex from a person subjected to trafficking. In such cases, the burden of proof shifted to the accused, who had to prove they were unaware the victim was exploited in trafficking. The national police anti-trafficking unit reported investigating 22 suspects in 2020 (15 for sex trafficking and seven for labor trafficking), compared with 39 investigations in 2019. Courts were shut down for 16 weeks in 2020 due to the pandemic, which postponed the vast majority of jury trials, a requirement for human trafficking cases, to 2021. Despite this, the government initiated prosecutions for three sex trafficking suspects (compared with five in 2019, zero in 2018, and three in 2017). The government did not initiate any prosecutions for labor trafficking in 2020. For the seventh year in a row, the government did not convict any traffickers under the anti-trafficking law, as amended in 2013, although the government has reported identifying 508 victims since 2013. However, in 2020, courts convicted one trafficker under another law after he pled guilty to false imprisonment; he had yet to be sentenced at the end of the reporting period. In its 2017 report, GRETA expressed concern about the inadequate criminal justice response in Ireland, noting the failure to convict traffickers and the absence of effective sentences could contribute to impunity and undermine efforts to support victims to testify. The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) had a specialized team responsible for prosecuting trafficking crimes. However, the government did not have specialized judges or courts that could hear trafficking cases, and judges often had little understanding of trafficking crimes or familiarity with the effects of trauma on trafficking victims. Civil society continued to express concern regarding the lack of judicial training. NGOs recommended training for law enforcement, prosecutors, and the judiciary regarding the complexities of commercial sex and sex trafficking, as well as non-punishment of trafficking victims. In February 2021, the government established a new specialized police unit, which focused primarily on vulnerable populations within the commercial sex industry and its links to organized crime, and included identifying trafficking victims as an area of priority. During the reporting period, the government and a government-funded NGO trained two officials from the criminal justice police unit, as well as other justice department officials and members of the legal aid board, but the government noted it was unable to train any police recruits due to pandemic-related restrictions. The government did not report how many officials received training in total, compared with 1,699 officials trained in 2019. The government reported that coordination between law enforcement and the ODPP improved during the reporting period. The government did not report any investigations, prosecutions, or convictions of government officials complicit in trafficking. In 2020, law enforcement cooperated in an international investigation with the United Kingdom (UK), which resulted in the identification of five trafficking victims in the UK and Ireland. The government continued to coordinate with INTERPOL, including information and intelligence sharing. In 2020, the government received 19 European arrest warrants for suspected human traffickers and arrested nine suspects from warrants issued by Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, and the UK. The government also extradited three suspects—one to France and two to the UK.

Breaking : Statement from Senator Michael McDowell McDowell Condemns O’Gorman’s Department’s FOI Cover Up “The public interest requires keeping the public in the dark” Date: Monday, 12th February 2024 Minister Roderic O’Gorman’s Department has now decided that it would not be in the “public interest” to publish the minutes of the government’s Interdepartmental Group meetings which considered the proposed amendments to the Constitution, over the course of the last year 2023. The Department has refused access to all 64 pages of notes and minutes discussing the consequences of the amendments including tax laws, social welfare laws, pension laws, allocation of family assets, alimony and allowance including the laws in relation to family reunification for asylum seekers. The withheld records include minutes of 16 meetings of the cross-departmental group. The records also include correspondence with an NGO named “Treoir”. The Department’s flawed opinion is that to allow access and publish these minutes would be “premature” and might impinge on “the integrity and viability of the referendums”, as “public officials could be seen to promote” referendum outcomes in breach of what the Departments says are the McKenna/McCrystal Principles. The Department apparently wishes to suppress all information in the minutes of the cross-departmental meetings until after the people have voted in the referendum. Are the people not entitled to know what the Department of Finance sees as the likely consequences for tax and pension law? Are the people not entitled to know what the implications are giving much wider rights for family reunification to asylum seekers and immigrants? False Reliance on the Electoral Commission The Department says that the function of the Electoral Commission to “impartial and accurate information” to the public. But the Electoral Commission cannot tell the public what the consequences of the referendums will be for tax laws for family law relating to divisions of family homes, businesses, farms and pension law, criminal law, and succession law to name but some. All the Electoral Commission can do is to tell voters that the courts will have to decide “hard cases” in future disputes. Cover Up I reject the Department’s flawed reasoning for refusing public access to the process that led to these constitutional amendments being rushed through the Dáil and Seanad by Minister O’Gorman using guillotine motions to prevent proper debate. The Department’s decision perverts the democratic process which requires giving the people all the facts before they vote in a referendum. As one leading, legal authority on Freedom of Information said: “The public is only marginally concerned with reasons supporting a policy which an agency has rejected…in contrast the public is vitally concerned with the reasons that did supply the basis for an agency policy actually adapted.” There is no justification for this departmental cover-up of the processes and considerations that have led to these flawed referendum proposals.
