414. To ask the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the extent to which she will address the protection of privacy given the global tendency by various media outlets to avoid compliance with legislation in this regard; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [22330/21]

My Department has no role in relation to protection of privacy by media or other entities.

The Data Protection Commission, which comes within the remit of the Department of Justice,  is the relevant authority to oversee compliance with Data Protection legislation.
