I am interested in the issue of the additional investment in ICT that is required, especially in view of the cybercrime incident we had earlier this year and the ongoing growth in crime, fraud, etc., in that area, whether it is through people's bank accounts and mobile phones or other fraud over the Internet, which is clearly a growth area, unfortunately, for many people who are experiencing it. I am concerned about whether An Garda Síochána has enough resources, adequate equipment and personnel with an adequate level of technical experience and training, to be able to combat this major problem we are facing in many of our communities throughout the country.
