Committee on Public Petitions: Decisions on Public Petitions Received (17 Oct 2024)

Martin Browne: The next petition is No. P00057/24, “Stop Dublin Airport illegally routing flights over Ratoath and Ashbourne", from Mr. Eoin Keary. It states: A petition was started due to the continuous noise pollution over Ratoath since August 2023 by Dublin Airport. Ratoath suffers from continuous noise pollution as a result on a route followed by aircraft directly over the town. The...

Committee on Public Petitions: Decisions on Public Petitions Received (17 Oct 2024)

Martin Browne: It is a timely petition in light of the current issues regarding overall airport capacity and the extra flights. I agree with Deputy Buckley. We need more detail about what is involved in the review that is taking place. We can make some sort of judgment on what type of consultation is involved between the petitioner and the DAA. If everyone is happy, is that agreed?

I invite members of the public to submit petitions via our online portal which is available at petitions.oireachtas.ie. A petition may be addressed to the Oireachtas on a matter of general public concern or interest or an issue of public policy. Next on the agenda is any other business. Do members have any...

Alan Farrell: Good afternoon everyone. Apologies have been received from Senator Craughwelll and Deputy Duncan Smith. The purpose of today's meeting of the joint committee is to discuss pre-legislative scrutiny of the National Cyber Security Bill 2024. I am very pleased to welcome Mr. Brian Honan, chairman of Cyber Ireland. I thank him for his attendance. I remind witnesses of the long-standing...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of the National Cyber Security Bill 2024: Cyber Ireland (17 Oct 2024)

Alan Farrell: I thank Mr. Honan for a comprehensive and informative opening statement. It is very much appreciated by the committee as it gives us a good steer on what is at the moment only the heads of a Bill. That gives us an idea but we have to flesh out this process to ensure that we capture as many third-party views as possible, such as those of Cyber Ireland and the organisations it represents, as...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of the National Cyber Security Bill 2024: Cyber Ireland (17 Oct 2024)

Alan Farrell: In a slightly broader question then, in Mr. Honan’s opinion, are the agencies of this State that will be responsible for the regulation of those entities adequately resourced? Do they have the relevant competencies or is this going to be outsourced?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of the National Cyber Security Bill 2024: Cyber Ireland (17 Oct 2024)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of the National Cyber Security Bill 2024: Cyber Ireland (17 Oct 2024)

Alan Farrell: That leads me to Mr. Honan's remarks on the cost to businesses. He estimated it at €32 billion across the EU. Has he estimated or best guesstimated a figure for Ireland?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of the National Cyber Security Bill 2024: Cyber Ireland (17 Oct 2024)

Alan Farrell: Please do.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of the National Cyber Security Bill 2024: Cyber Ireland (17 Oct 2024)

Alan Farrell: In Mr. Honan's opinion, is there any mechanism to mitigate those costs for businesses? I do not think we are talking about small firms but, that being said, 25% of a firm's IT-related budget is still a very significant cost and would be quite something for the accountants to swallow. In the Irish context, most of these firms are going to be very significant players in the market and they...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: General Scheme of the National Cyber Security Bill 2024: Cyber Ireland (17 Oct 2024)

Alan Farrell: Mr. Honan has introduced a new concept to me, namely, "technological sovereignty". I have reread this section and I am struggling with it. Perhaps he could help me a little. Is he talking about a potential loss of competitive edge as a result of this?
