Delays at Dublin Airport: Discussion
Mr. Maurice Hennessy:
It was a mistake. There was an error in the hand-off within the organisation. As Mr. Philips said, we are training a lot of people and trying to get a lot of people through the organisation. Our time and attendance system supplier, Kronos, suffered a cyberattack last December and our time and attendance system was down from December to April, as a result of which many of our systems had to be manual, and we have not yet fully recovered from that. A number of our underlying processes were compromised. We had to go manual on a number of those processes and we have not yet fully recovered them. Going manual in such situations is prone to error, and that is one of the reasons-----
