Chapter 14 - Customer Service - Development of Income Support Application Forms (7 Nov 2019) David Cullinane: Bear with me. I will discuss what is in the report. Page 10 of the report talks about three high-level findings. There may be more findings and there are many other things she talks about but there are three high-level findings, which I have just put to Mr. McKeon. The Department does not accept any of three findings. That is my point.

I am reading from her own report and I am putting questions to Mr. McKeon on the Data Protection Commissioner's report. Page 10 details the "High-level findings of this Investigation" and it states "Three key findings of this investigation are...". It does not mention four findings, it...

In any event, I will move on because I want to look at processes. We had quite an interesting discussion with the Data Protection Commissioner on the interaction between the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner and the Department. The Data Protection Commissioner had some stuff to say about that, which I will get to. I have...

What interaction was going on? I seek an understanding of how Departments interact with what is a statutory office. The response was sent on 30 November 2018. The Data Protection Commissioner stated in her report that 470 scanned pages,...

If we, as a committee, sought information from a Department and received 470 scanned, unpaginated pages, I am sure we would return them. When this was put to her, the Data Protection Commissioner stated this was unusual and far from the norm when receiving information from a Department. In fact, she was critical of the Department for the manner in...

Ms Dixon had a draft report and sought responses from the Department but they were sent as 470 scanned, unpaginated pages. Subsequently, she received what she described as a searchable version but it...
