Passport Services
Dail Éireann — 2021-09-30
============================================================

Simon Coveney (FG), Cork South-Central

I will finish shortly. The next major element of the reform programme is to replace the core technology underpinning the passport service. The current system was launched in 2004 and will be replaced by a more modern, integrated system. Detailed design and implementation will begin in the coming months and it is expected to be operational by the end of 2023.
