Victims of online harassment are left without justice, while perpetrators go unpunished, due to the absence of effective laws, the Irish Council for Civil Liberties has warned.

New laws designed to tackle revenge pornography and upskirting are welcome but the government needs to include proper sanctions in any measures, domestic abuse charities have warned.

The CEO of the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre has called for the introduction of legislation to make upskirting a criminal offence.

British Ministers have committed to order a review of hate crime law following calls to recognise misogyny as an aggravating factor if it motivated upskirting.
