My intention is that we will have three. A competition is under way and I hope to be in a position in a matter of weeks to appoint new commissioners. Obviously, Ms Helen Dixon is stepping down and is moving on to a different role so there will be a vacancy there as well. It is my intention that all three commissioner posts will be filled. I want to take this opportunity to thank Helen for the work that she has done in the setting up of the office and the significant expansion of the work of the Data Protection Commission over the last number of years and to wish her well in her new role.
