Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 July 2015
345. Deputy Noel Harrington asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation his plans to include the new Eircode postcode in all schemes and administrative roles operated by his Department; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [28318/15]
View answerMy Department supports the Eircode postcode initiative. The Deputy may be aware that, the Companies Registration Office (CRO), one of the Offices under the aegis of my Department is one of the members of the Public Sector Bodies Implementation Group and is one of the “early adopters” of the initiative and as such has begun the integration of Eircodes into its systems and registers.
It is anticipated that there will be some ICT development work and associated costs to integrate and validate the Eircodes into my Department’s differing registers and systems. This will be carried out in the normal course of business in conjunction with system developers as the need arises.
