198. To ask the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform to clarify whether at any point over the past ten years the SSL certificates for his Department’s websites expired for a period of time; if so, the reason this occurred; and the duration they remained expired. [33278/23]

As the deputy is probably aware most Departments, including my own Department, now host their websites within the gov.ie domain. Since gov.ie went live on the 17thof January 2019 and in preceding years there have been no occasions where the SSL certificates associated with my department's websites have expired without renewal.
My Department acts immediately when alerted to an upcoming expiry date for its SSL certificates and renews them well in advance of this date.
