TO: MINISTER FOR JUSTICE AND EQUALITY

We are calling for the government to enact the proposed Criminal Law (Hate Crime) Bill immediately, to protect people from various minorities in Ireland. We want to help break the silence on hate crime, encourage people to report racism and other hate attacks and to find effective ways to address it. This legislation can help to achieve that.

Why is this important?

Ireland, unlike most other EU countries, has no hate crime legislation.
