Public Accounts Committee

2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 29 - Communications, Climate Action and Environment

9:00 am

Mr. Mark Griffin:

I am firmly of the view that it is fit for purpose based on what we have seen over the past number of years in terms of the types of companies that are using it. It is far more useful to logistics companies. It is being used by insurance companies. It is being used by the CSO, as I said, the Property Registration Authority, the OSI and the health boards in terms of the unique health identifier system. We have seen a very significant increase in the level of usage since the last time I was before the committee dealing with this issue. We have 25,500 look-ups-----
