Digital Rights Ireland to take legal action against the State

conor @ 4:50 pm

This was on the front page of The Irish Times today. It’s also in The Irish Examiner and the Irish Independent

Here’s the post on the DRI website

Digital Rights Ireland has written to the Minister for Justice and Law Reform, Michael McDowell TD, and to the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources, Noel Dempsey TD and to the Garda Commissioner. We have looked for undertakings from them to cease breaching the Constitutional, statutory and European rights of the citizens of Ireland. Failing a positive response, we have instructed our solicitors, McGarr Solicitors, to prepare legal action.
