Public Services Card
9:55 am
Willie O'Dea (Limerick City, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source
I thank the Minister for her response. Basically the position is that she has not got an enforcement notice as yet but when she gets one she will consider it. Is she saying she has not definitively made up her mind yet to contest or resist this by having recourse to the courts? Is that the position? There is no final definitive decision on that.
Is the Minister aware the Data Protection Commissioner is currently doing a study on the biometric implications of the public services card? Does she have any comment to make on that?
With respect to the Minister's statement, which she has made a number of times, that to comply with the instructions of the Data Protection Commissioner would be unlawful, could she elaborate on that?
