Dail Éireann — 2021-05-18
============================================================

Stephen Donnelly (FF), Wicklow

The HSE and the Department have their own in-house ICT teams. The HSE has partners and there is back-up from the NCSC. For example, on Thursday, when the Department of Health spotted suspicious activity, the Department's IT team contacted the centre and took advice from the centre on how to respond.
