The Constitution (Bunreacht na hÉireann) guarantees your right in Ireland to freely express your convictions and opinions. However, it also asserts that the state should try to make sure that the radio, the press and the cinema are not used to undermine public order or morality or the authority of the state.
The Constitution also states that it is an offence to publish or utter blasphemous, seditious or indecent matter.
There are many limitations on your freedom of expression. For example, the Censorship of Publications Acts and the Censorship of Films Acts allow censorship of publications like books and films.
Your right to freedom of expression is set down in Article 40 of the Constitution.
