Yes, her enthusiasm is very clear. That certainly is apparent.

The Minister talked about his phone being hacked and deleting messages. Did he delete messages on advice, perhaps from a cybersecurity adviser or the Garda, or did he take it upon himself to do so? I refer not necessarily to these particular messages, although I am talking about them as well, but, in general, does he have a particular protocol he uses to determine whether it is public or private business? Does he just clear down his phone every week or how does that work?
