A cross-Departmental review of Ireland’s Integration Strategy, including measures to address racism, is being led by my Department’s Office for the Promotion of Migrant Integration. As well as the cross-Departmental review, the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality is doing work on integration, multi-culturalism and combatting racism. The issue of strengthening the law to combat racism, including the Prohibition of Incitement to Hatred Act 1989, will be considered in the context of the outcome of these reviews.
