The figure for 2017 was published by way of a parliamentary question and it is in the Comptroller and Auditor General's report. I am aware that it is not separately identified in the Estimate document. That is not my question. What is the projected figure for the security centre for 2019?

The Department's notes state that the digital service provider includes cloud computing, online sales and search engines. I assume these are all in the private sector.

If something happens with one of these companies that are headquartered in Ireland, will people say that cybersecurity was not up to the mark in Ireland? It might be the company's fault if there was a breach of its security system, but if its headquarters are in Ireland, the message can very easily travel the world - within an hour - that...

The document also says, however, that the Central Bank is the designated competent authority in respect of the financial...
