Irish Justice Minister Helen McEntee has pushed through a revised version of the controversial Hatred and Hate Offences Bill, now known as the Criminal Justice (Hate Offences) Bill 2022, in which the hate speech element has been removed, but a new category of crime, “offences aggravated by hatred,” has been created.
