General Scheme of the Birth Information and Tracing Bill 2021: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Sinéad Gibney:
Exactly. In terms of how the agency is set up or handled, it is very much about resourcing it adequately to do its job in a way that prevents any further delays. It is up to the Oireachtas and the relevant agencies to decide who will handle the requests and how they will be handled, but it is quite clear multiple agencies or sources will be involved. It is a question of making sure that co-ordination and resourcing are done ahead of time in order that people do not experience delays once these requests start coming in.
