Since the cyberattack, our colleagues in ICT, along with their counterparts in the HSE and OGCIO have been working diligently to restore the PQ referral system to the HSE. This work has been completed and we can now begin referring PQs to the HSE once more.

The majority of IT systems have also been restored within the HSE but access to historical data can still be a challenge and may be more time consuming in certain instances. This may impact how quickly we can respond to certain PQs but this will need to be addressed on a case by case basis.
