Ms Hilary Murphy-Fagan:

Of course that is the case with all third parties. We have covered this clearly with them already, and also in preparation for general data protection regulation, GDPR. We have confidentiality agreements in place with them. They are very aware of their responsibilities. We have to be satisfied in relation to their data protection protocols, procedures and security, including cybersecurity because that is another large risk for our office. They provide assurance to us and then we maintain, monitor and ensure they understand exactly what they can and cannot do and what their responsibilities are as it relates to the work that they do on our system relating to software development.
