Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Examination of the Third Report of the Citizens' Assembly (Resumed)

12:00 pm

Mr. Garrett Blaney:

We have talked to that unit. We have talked also to the Department officials who are dealing with the NIS directive and associated directives. We also talk directly to the companies regarding cybersecurity. We share best information with other regulators across Europe. There is a significant degree of collective experience. I have had some engagement with the Americans regarding their cybersecurity. We are only as good as the next incident and we must be constantly vigilant in this area.
