Select Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Estimates for Public Services 2021
Vote 29 - Environment, Climate and Communications (Revised)
Vote 31 - Transport (Revised)

Chairman:

Under the heading of "key outputs in public service activities" in the financial and human resources inputs, one of the subheadings refers to Ireland's national cybersecurity strategy 2019 to 2024, which is an area that interests the committee. There are no target outputs for either 2020 or 2021. The main point I am trying to make is that within such a fast-moving area, the Department does not appear to have any plans to publish. This is a national cybersecurity strategy that is now two years old and we have not seen it. It was supposed to apply from 2019 to 2024. Where does that strategy stand? If the Minister of State does not have an update on those issues at the moment-----
