Ms Helen Dixon:

Those issues around biometric processing, security and the processing of free travel data are being completed under the old Acts. That is because it is clear, in section 8 of the 2018 Act, that if we had commenced the investigation prior to the 2018 Act coming into force we have to complete it under the old Acts. We had written to the Department to indicate that regarding the other areas that remain for examination around MyGov.ie - certain issues relating to the public sector data set, and the single customer review database, which we have a particularly interest in looking at - because we had not commenced the investigation work on those areas that a new investigation under the 2018 Act and GDPR would cover those, and that is still the plan.
