Cybersecurity Policy
Dail Éireann — 2025-12-16
============================================================

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire (SF), Cork South-Central

We have spoken about how potential defence and national security issues will not always be what we have traditionally imagined. Cybersecurity and hybrid threats are going to be significant features of that. The cybersecurity command has been established, which was called for in the Report of the Commission on the Defence Forces. That is very welcome, but progress in the implementation of its plans is what we now need. What is the current strength of the cybersecurity command? What will it be in 12 months’ time?
