Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs

Cyber Security: Discussion

10:00 am

Mr. Tony Weir:

We published an ICT in schools report some years back but we do not carry out specific ICT subject inspections. We do not have particular data on that because we do not carry out subject inspections around ICT. The cross-platform issue would very much depend on the type of software that is available. There is some cross-platform software and there are other forms of software that are bespoke to Apple IOS, Android and Microsoft and it can be difficult to gather data. I am not quite sure about the data the Deputy is referring to.
