Page 10 of the Secretary General's opening statement reads: "The Government's Digital Services Gateway together with the Public Services Card and MyGovID, our online identity service, are key to Ireland becoming an exemplar in digital transactions." I disagree with that language because what I have read is certainly not an exemplar.

I want to get this matter straight. Is the Department of Social Welfare the lead Department to roll out the card?
