Policing, Security and Community Safety Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2023-12-13
============================================================

Gerard P. Craughwell (IND), Labour Panel

The Minister will find that in Israel, for example, the director of national cybersecurity is in the office of the prime minister. Most directors elsewhere are at government level and not subject to some department's oversight. They work directly for the prime minister. We really need to look at our security systems.
