Criminal Justice (International Cooperation on Electronic Evidence and Other Matters) Bill 2026: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2026-06-17
============================================================

Catherine Ardagh (FF), Dublin South-Central

As I said, this legislation applies to criminal law enforcement bodies. We know that the DPC is not one such body. We consulted the DPC about the general scheme and it commented on the benefit of information sharing with listed public authorities. An expert team from the DPC would have been in touch with my Department for detailed engagement on a written basis, which is not unusual.
At this stage, I have nothing further to add about the matter.
