Ireland passed Jennie's Law in July 2026, which establishes a publicly accessible online register for convicted violent offenders, named after Jennie Poole, who was murdered by her ex-partner in 2021, in order to protect future victims from violence by partners with a criminal past. (translated)

A privilege to meet with Jason Poole and David French this evening as ‘Jennie’s Law’ and ‘Valerie’s Law’ are approved by the Dail. This is an important step to help protect vulnerable children and potential victims of domestic violence. https://t.co/cT95Ii2SZE #JenniesLaw #ValeriesLaw #ChildProtection #IE
