John Gormley
Question:390 Mr. Gormley asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if his attention has been drawn to a report published by Price Waterhouse in May 1998 which suggests that a reduction in the Irish theft and piracy rate in the computer software sector, recently estimated at 70 per cent of packaged business software, could lead to an increase in employment in that sector of up to 2,770 jobs by 2001; whether he has satisfied himself that adequate resources are available to the gardaí to tackle software piracy; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
