In light of the report issued yesterday and the significant 59% increase in funding in the Estimate for the Data Protection Commissioner, it is clear that the office is being inundated with work. While the funding increase is welcome can the Minister comment on whether, given the volume increase and the report published yesterday, it has sufficient resources to deal with this unprecedented increase in activity?
