The Communications Commission is set to introduce new laws that could help tackle online cyberbullying.
The Communications Bill has been more than two years in the making, and deals with regulations for broadcasters and telecommunications.

Anybody found breaking the law could face six months in prison or a fine of up to £5,000.
