A number of the other objectives in the strategy fall to different Departments. Principally, I see a lot in the Department of public expenditure and reform on artificial intelligence in the public service. The strategy is there and was born out of the Minister of State's Department. We do not have the national office up and running yet. The Department of public expenditure and reform has a responsibility, the ESRI has a responsibility, and there is a responsibility on all public service bodies, but who is accountable for overseeing the strategy's implementation? Is it within the office at the minute or will it be the Department?
