Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 30 April 2024
564. Deputy Denis Naughten asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the total number of copper communication lines within his Department that are currently in active operation and for which his Department is paying for on a monthly basis, inclusive of ISDN, PTSN and copper-based lease lines; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18831/24]
View answerI wish to inform the Deputy that the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (DCEDIY) is not paying for any copper communication lines within the Department. DCEDIY operates on the Build to Share (BTS) Managed Desktop Service provided by the Office of the Government Chief Information Officer (OGCIO) and these services are provided exclusively via Government Networks (GN). The OGCIO did not install any such lines.
