Before I ask my colleagues to contribute, I have one question relating to cybersecurity. Reports have indicated cybercrime is on the rise in Ireland. Does the witness have a particular view as to whether Ireland is more at risk in this regard as opposed to other member states or European counterparts? Will the witness expand on the role of the European Cyber Security Organisation in liaising with national bodies and member states? Does the witness have any comment on the privacy shield between the European Union and the United States? Does the privacy shield offer sufficient protection to EU citizens with respect to data and privacy?
