This question focuses on the decision of the Government a little over 12 months ago to ram through the House the legislation to establish Irish Water, wherein provision was made for the collection of individuals' personal public service, PPS, numbers. The Government is in regret and apology mode. Against this background, we want to know what the Tánaiste is prepared to do about the growing public concern around the issue of the collection of PPS numbers and their potential abuse thereafter.
