Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

General Scheme of the National Cyber Security Bill 2024: Cyber Ireland

1:30 pm

Mr. Brian Honan:

Nothing major has been flagged to us. What has been flagged, as I mentioned earlier, relates to the territorial requirement whereby if a supplier of cybersecurity services is more than 50% owned by an entity outside the EU, that supplier cannot bid for cybersecurity projects that will be funded by the Government, ENISA, or the EU. From the point of view of our members it means that some of us who have gotten funding from investors based outside Ireland or the EU cannot provide the services.
