Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 8 November 2006
156 Mr. Gregory asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the action the gardaí at Cabra Garda station are taking on foot of complaints that children as young as ten years of age are accessing pornographic sites on computers with Internet access in a centre (details supplied) in Dublin 7; if the gardaí have spoken to the proprietor of the premises concerned; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [37070/06]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am informed by the Garda authorities that local Garda management is not aware of any specific complaint in respect of the premises referred to. I am further informed that management of the premises in question has a policy that no person under the age of 16 years of age can access the Internet there and the proprietor has advised gardaí that the policy is enforced by the manager of the premises and the security staff. Members of the local Community Policing Unit in the area also monitor the premises to ensure the policy is enforced. The Garda Síochána will investigate any complaint received.
