Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

General Scheme of Data-Sharing and Governance Bill: Discussion

10:00 am

Mr. Seamus Carroll:

In certain cases there is a robustness. There are different ways of doing it. This is primary legislation. The possibility of introducing regulations has been mentioned as an alternative and there is now the possibility of there being memoranda of understanding which have been agreed. I assume that the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform has received the necessary legal advice to the effect that this would meet requirements under the GDPR.
