The Data Sharing and Governance Bill, responsibility for which falls under the remit of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform, was published on 8 June 2018 and is currently at Report Stage in the Seanad.

As the Data Sharing and Governance Bill 2018 is still under consideration, my Department is not yet in a position to prepare and implement appropriate measures.  This will be done when the final outcome of the Bill is known.
