Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions

Jim O'Callaghan (Dublin Bay South, Fianna Fail)
I do not want to put the focus on that country or the entity. In terms of the issues that arise, one of the difficulties is that many of us have granted permission to use apps to gain certain services on our mobile phones, for instance weather apps, location apps or maps. This can have the impact that we are giving information out about our location. I am not suggesting all responsibility should rest on the individual but certainly since that programme aired, I have turned off any of the location apps on my phone and I recommend to other Deputies that they do the same. We can turn them on when we need to use them or when we need to use a map.
